💡 Tips for Perfect Scrambled Eggs
-
Low and slow: Medium-low heat gives creamy, tender eggs instead of dry, rubbery ones.
-
Don’t over-stir: Gentle folding forms soft curds.
-
Add dairy carefully: Milk or cream makes eggs softer, but don’t add too much.
-
Season at the end: Some chefs add salt at the end to avoid watery eggs.
I can also give a Pakistani-style version with spices like black pepper, green chilies, and coriander to make the scrambled eggs more flavorful and aromatic. Do you want me to do that?
