Gordon Ramsay Scrambled Eggs
Description
This scrambled eggs recipe starts by cracking cold eggs into a deep saucepan with a knob of butter and cooking over medium-high heat while stirring continuously using a rubber spatula. Instead of whisking vigorously, the technique involves folding the eggs and scraping the pan bottom to break curds as they form. Frequent removal from the heat and stirring off the heat regulate cooking to prevent overcooking.
The eggs cook over about three minutes to a moist, creamy consistency rather than dry. Adding yogurt at the end increases creaminess and adds tang. The eggs are seasoned with salt and pepper, then optionally garnished with herbs like chives, thyme, or green onions to add freshness and subtle herbal notes.
This method produces scrambled eggs with a soft, delicate texture and mild flavor, suitable for serving immediately as a refined breakfast or light meal.
Ingredients
- 6 egg cold
- 1 big tablespoon butter (15-20 g)
- 1 tablespoon yogurt
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- herbs for garnish, if desired
Instructions
- Crack the eggs into a deep saucepan. Add the knob of butter. Turn the heat onto medium high.
- Using a rubber spatula, stir constantly, by folding the eggs and constantly scraping the bottom. Don't whisk.
- After 30 seconds on the heat, remove the pan from the heat and continue stirring for 10 seconds. Place back on the heat for another 30 seconds, then remove from heat and stir for another 10 seconds or so. Keep repeating for about 3 minutes, or until eggs are soft and wet but cooked through.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the yogurt, then season with salt and pepper. Garnish with chopped chives, fresh thyme, or green onion if desired and serve immediately.
Notes
- This recipe is adapted from Gordon Ramsay's technique emphasizing gentle cooking and continuous stirring for creamy texture.
- Cook eggs in small increments off and on the heat to avoid overcooking and achieve soft curds.
- Adding yogurt at the end enriches the eggs, but use moderation to maintain texture.
