Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the heavy cream and salt.
Using a whisk, vigorously beat the eggs and cream until fully combined and slightly frothy. This ensures the scrambled eggs will be light and fluffy.
Place a non-stick skillet over low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt slowly, coating the entire bottom of the pan.
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbling (but not browned), pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs in a figure-eight motion, scraping from the bottom of the pan as they begin to set. This helps maintain a creamy texture.
Continue stirring softly and consistently. As the eggs start to resemble soft curds, remove the skillet from the heat momentarily to prevent overcooking, then return it to low heat as needed.
Once the eggs are barely set with a glossy and creamy consistency, immediately remove the skillet from the heat.
Season with freshly ground black pepper and fold in the chopped chives, if using.
Divide the scrambled eggs between two plates and serve immediately. For an extra touch of luxury, pair with toasted brioche or smoked salmon.
