Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs (about 300g)
- 3 tablespoons (42g) unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) whole milk or cream
- Salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (optional, such as chives or parsley)
Instructions
- Crack 6 large eggs into a medium bowl. Add 2 tablespoons (30ml) of whole milk or cream. Whisk vigorously with a fork or whisk until the mixture is smooth and slightly frothy, about 1-2 minutes.
- Place a non-stick skillet over low heat. Add 3 tablespoons (42g) of unsalted butter. Let it melt slowly until foaming but not browning, about 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Let them sit undisturbed for about 20 seconds until edges begin to set.
- Using a silicone spatula, gently stir the eggs with a folding motion, scraping the bottom and sides of the pan. Keep the heat low and cook slowly for 4-6 minutes until eggs look glossy and slightly runny.
- Remove the pan from heat when eggs are mostly set but still creamy. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Add fresh herbs if desired.
- Transfer scrambled eggs to warmed plates and serve immediately.
Notes
Cook eggs slowly over low heat and stir gently to avoid rubbery texture. Remove from heat while eggs are still slightly wet to finish cooking with residual heat. Use fresh eggs for best flavor and texture. Butter is key for creaminess.
