Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) milk
Seasoning:
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Cooking Ingredient:
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) butter or cooking spray
Instructions
- Gather essential ingredients and prepare a whisking station with a mixing bowl, ensuring all components are within reach for smooth preparation.
- Delicately crack eggs into the mixing bowl, carefully avoiding shell fragments. Season with salt and pepper, then incorporate milk to enhance creaminess.
- Vigorously whisk the egg mixture until ingredients are thoroughly integrated and the texture transforms into a light, uniform blend with subtle frothiness.
- Select a non-stick skillet and position it on medium-low heat. Allow butter to melt completely, gently rotating the pan to create an even, glossy coating.
- Carefully pour the whisked egg mixture into the heated skillet, allowing the edges to gradually set for approximately 10 seconds without disruption.
- Using a flexible spatula, initiate gentle folding motions from the pan’s perimeter toward the center, enabling uncooked egg portions to redistribute and cook evenly.
- Continue soft, consistent stirring and folding, monitoring the eggs’ transformation from liquid to tender, creamy curds. Adjust heat if necessary to prevent overcooking.
- Once eggs reach desired consistency – whether softly set or more firmly structured – immediately remove the skillet from heat to prevent toughening.
- Transfer the scrambled eggs onto a warm plate, optionally embellishing with fresh herbs, crumbled cheese, or preferred garnishes. Serve promptly alongside complementary breakfast accompaniments.
Notes
- Use room temperature eggs for smoother, more consistent scrambling and prevent temperature shock.
- Opt for low and slow cooking to achieve creamy, soft scrambled eggs without becoming rubbery or overcooked.
- Include a splash of dairy like milk or cream to enhance richness and create a softer texture during whisking.
- Avoid over-stirring while cooking to maintain larger, more delicate egg curds and prevent breaking them into tiny pieces.
