Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 3 large fresh eggs (per person)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Ingredients

  • Cheddar, goat cheese, mozzarella, or feta cheese (to taste)
  • Fresh herbs: chives, parsley, or dill (finely chopped, to taste)
  • Sautéed veggies: spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers (as desired)
  • Olive oil (to substitute butter for dairy-free version)
  • Almond milk or oat milk (to substitute milk for dairy-free version)
  • Chili flakes or hot sauce (for a spicy kick)

Instructions

  1. Crack and Whisk the Eggs: Crack fresh eggs into a bowl and whisk vigorously until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy to incorporate air for fluffiness.
  2. Add Milk and Seasonings: Pour in a small splash of milk or cream, add a pinch of salt and pepper, and gently whisk to combine without overmixing.
  3. Heat the Pan and Melt Butter: Set a non-stick pan over low to medium-low heat; melt the butter completely, coating the pan without letting it brown.
  4. Pour in the Egg Mixture: Pour the eggs into the warm pan and let them sit undisturbed for a few seconds until the edges begin to set, leaving the center still liquid.
  5. Gently Stir and Fold: Using a silicone spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center with folding motions to form large fluffy curds.
  6. Remove Before Fully Cooked: Take the pan off heat when eggs are still slightly runny—the residual heat will finish cooking them to creamy perfection without drying out.

Notes

  • Cook on low to medium-low heat to avoid rubbery texture.
  • Use the freshest eggs possible for best fluffiness and flavor.
  • Do not over-stir; gentle folding preserves texture and curds.
  • Butter enriches flavor and prevents sticking.
  • Remove eggs from heat early; carryover heat finishes cooking to keep them tender.
