Cuisine: British
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Chives for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Crack the eggs into a cold, heavy-bottomed non-stick pan. Do not whisk the eggs beforehand.
- Add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the pan with the eggs. Place the pan on medium-low heat.
- Begin stirring the eggs immediately using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, continuously moving the eggs around the pan.
- Keep the pan moving on and off the heat to control the cooking temperature and prevent overcooking.
- As the eggs begin to set and form soft curds, continue stirring and moving the pan to create creamy, soft scrambled eggs.
- When the eggs are almost fully cooked but still slightly runny, remove the pan from heat and continue stirring.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Transfer the scrambled eggs immediately to warm plates to stop the cooking process.
- Optional: Garnish with finely chopped chives for added flavor and presentation.
- Serve immediately while the eggs are hot and creamy.
Tips
- Always use a cold, heavy-bottomed non-stick pan to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
- The key is low and slow heat - patience is crucial for achieving that silky, creamy texture.
- Keep your spatula moving constantly to create soft, delicate curds.
- Remove the pan from heat periodically to control the cooking temperature.
- Stop cooking when the eggs are still slightly runny - they'll continue to cook from residual heat.
- Use the freshest eggs possible for the best flavor and texture.
- Don't season the eggs until the very end to prevent breaking down the proteins.
- Serve immediately on warm plates to maintain the perfect creamy consistency.
- For extra richness, use high-quality unsalted butter.
- Experiment with garnishes like chives, fresh herbs, or a sprinkle of truffle salt for gourmet touch.
