Scrambled eggs are one of the simplest and fastest meals you can make.
Basic scrambled eggs
Ingredients
- 2–3 eggs
- Salt and pepper
- 1 tbsp butter or oil
Optional
- Splash of milk or cream (for softer texture)
- Cheese, herbs, chili flakes
Method
- Crack and whisk
- Break eggs into a bowl.
- Add salt and pepper.
- Whisk until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Heat the pan
- Use low to medium heat.
- Add butter and let it melt gently (don’t brown it).
- Cook slowly
- Pour in eggs.
- Stir gently with a spatula.
- Keep the heat low for soft, creamy eggs.
- Stop early
- Remove from heat when eggs are still slightly glossy.
- They’ll finish cooking from residual heat.
Tips for better scrambled eggs
- Low heat = creamy texture
- High heat = dry, rubbery eggs
- Don’t overcook
- Add cheese at the end for richness
