Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.125 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.25 cup shredded cheese (optional)
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (optional, e.g., chives or parsley)
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a microwave-safe bowl, ensuring there is enough room for the eggs to expand while cooking.
Add milk, butter, salt, and pepper to the bowl. Using a fork or whisk, beat the mixture until the eggs are fully blended and the color is uniform.
Place the bowl in the microwave and cook on high for 30 seconds.
Remove the bowl and stir the eggs thoroughly with a fork, breaking up the curds and scraping down the sides of the bowl.
Return the bowl to the microwave and cook for another 30 seconds. Again, stir the eggs thoroughly.
Repeat cooking in 15-20 second increments, stirring after each interval, until the eggs are just set but still slightly glossy. This should take about 2-3 minutes total, depending on your microwave's power.
If using shredded cheese, sprinkle it over the eggs in the final 15 seconds of cooking to allow it to melt.
Remove the bowl from the microwave and let the eggs sit for 1 minute to finish cooking from residual heat.
Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy!
