Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Egg whites
- 1 tablespoon Milk (optional)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil or non-stick cooking spray
- 1 teaspoon Chopped fresh herbs (optional, such as parsley or chives)
Instructions
1. Crack eggs and separate the whites from the yolks, collecting the whites in a bowl.
2. Using a fork or whisk, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy. If using, mix in the milk for added creaminess.
3. Season the egg whites with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the olive oil or lightly coat the pan with non-stick cooking spray.
5. Once the pan is warm, pour the seasoned egg whites into the skillet.
6. Let the egg whites sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan to form soft, curd-like folds.
7. Continue cooking and stirring gently until the egg whites are just set and no liquid remains. Avoid overcooking to keep them tender.
8. Remove the scrambled egg whites from the pan and plate immediately. Optionally, sprinkle chopped fresh herbs on top for added flavor.
