Scrambled Eggs Recipe (Fluffy and Moist)
Description
The recipe begins by heating a combination of butter and olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat to provide a balanced fat base for cooking. Eggs are cracked into a bowl then whisked thoroughly until blended, ensuring even cooking and texture.
The eggs are then poured into the hot pan and gently folded and pushed across the surface, forming large curds as they cook. The key is to remove the pan from heat while the eggs still look slightly glossy and moist to prevent dryness or a rubbery texture.
Chopping fresh chives and adding them as a topping introduces a mild onion flavor that complements the eggs. The scrambled eggs are served immediately while warm and can be seasoned with salt, black pepper, or other spices according to personal preference.
Ingredients
- 8 egg
- 1 Tablespoon butter
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- chives optional, fresh, chopped
Instructions
- Heat oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Crack eggs in a small mixing bowl. Whisk them with a whisk or a fork until blended.
- Pour eggs in the skillet when it is hot. Gently fold and push the eggs across the pan, forming large soft curds. Continue pulling and folding eggs until there is no visible liquid. Remove the pan from the heat source while the eggs are still glossy looking. You don't want to overcook the scrambled eggs, or you might end up with tough and rubbery eggs.
- Serve while still warm. Season with salt, black pepper, cumin or paprika. Top with your favorie toppings.
