Ingredients

• Main Ingredients:
• 3 eggs
• 1 tablespoon butter or oil
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Optional Add-ons:
• 2 tablespoons milk or cream (for creaminess)
• Cheese (grated)
• Fresh herbs (parsley, chives)

Instructions

1. Start by cracking the eggs into a bowl. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper. If you prefer creamier eggs, add milk or cream at this stage.
2. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined. The more evenly mixed the eggs are, the better the final texture will be.
3. Heat a non-stick pan over low to medium heat and add butter. Allow it to melt gently without browning.
4. Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit for a few seconds, then begin to stir slowly using a spatula.
5. Continue stirring gently, moving the eggs from the edges toward the center. This creates soft curds and prevents overcooking.
6. Cook the eggs slowly, removing them from heat just before they are fully set. The residual heat will finish cooking them.
7. If using cheese or herbs, add them just before removing from heat.
8. Serve immediately.
