Perfect for a special breakfast or brunch, Gourmet Scrambled Eggs can be enjoyed on their own or paired with toast, smoked salmon, or avocado for a complete and indulgent meal.
Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream or whole milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives or parsley, finely chopped
- Optional: 1/4 cup grated Parmesan or Gruyère cheese
- Optional: Truffle oil or truffle salt for a luxurious finish
Instructions:
- Whisk the Eggs: In a medium bowl, gently whisk the eggs with the heavy cream or milk until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Heat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat. Add the butter and let it melt slowly, coating the bottom of the pan.
- Cook the Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Allow the eggs to set slightly around the edges, then use a spatula to gently stir and fold the eggs from the edges toward the center. Continue cooking slowly, stirring occasionally, to create soft, creamy curds.
- Add the Cheese: If using, sprinkle the grated cheese over the eggs once they are mostly cooked but still a bit runny. Continue cooking until the eggs are fully set but still creamy.
- Finish with Herbs: Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the fresh herbs. For an extra touch of luxury, drizzle a small amount of truffle oil or sprinkle with truffle salt before serving.
- Serve: Plate the scrambled eggs immediately, serving them on toast or with your favorite breakfast sides.
These Gourmet Scrambled Eggs are a delicious way to start your day, offering a rich, creamy, and indulgent experience that turns a simple dish into something truly special. Perfect for impressing guests or treating yourself to a little morning luxury.
