Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk or cream (for extra creaminess, optional)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Fresh herbs (chives, parsley, or dill), optional for garnish
Instructions
- Whisking the Eggs – In a bowl, crack the eggs and add milk (if using), a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Whisk well until the mixture is completely combined and slightly frothy. This incorporates air and makes eggs lighter.
- Heating the Pan – Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add butter and let it melt gently, coating the pan evenly.
- Cooking the Eggs – Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to sit undisturbed for a few seconds until the edges just begin to set.
- Stirring Technique – Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center in sweeping motions. Continue slowly folding and stirring, creating soft curds.
- Controlling Doneness – Cook until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly glossy. Remove from heat immediately, as they will continue to cook in residual heat.
- Finishing Touches – Garnish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of cheese if desired. Serve immediately.
