1 dash black pepper
1 oz goat cheese
Cheesy scrambled eggs

Cheesy scrambled eggs are a quick and delightful dish perfect for breakfast or brunch. This recipe adds a rich, creamy texture with goat cheese, complemented by the flavors of sautéed onions and a touch of black pepper.

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Finely chop the onion.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
2. Sauté Onions:
- Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the salted butter to the pan and let it melt, swirling the pan to coat the bottom evenly.
- Add the chopped onions to the pan. Sauté them for about 3-5 minutes, or until they are soft and translucent. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
3. Cook the Eggs:
- Reduce the heat to low. Pour the whisked eggs into the pan with the sautéed onions.
- Season the eggs with the salt and black pepper.
- Let the eggs sit for a moment until they just begin to set around the edges. Then, gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges towards the center. Repeat this process, occasionally scraping the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
4. Add the Cheese:
- Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese evenly over the top.
- Gently fold the eggs over the cheese to combine, allowing the cheese to melt into the eggs.
5. Finish & Serve:
- Continue cooking, gently stirring, for another 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs are fully cooked to your preference. They should be creamy and soft, not dry.
- Remove the pan from the heat immediately to prevent further cooking.
6. Plate and Enjoy:
- Serve the cheesy scrambled eggs hot, garnished with an additional pinch of black pepper or some fresh herbs if desired.

Tips:

- Use room temperature eggs for a creamier texture.

- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to incorporate more air, making them fluffier.

- Cook the eggs on low heat to avoid overcooking and achieve a soft curd.

- Add the goat cheese just before the eggs are fully set to ensure it melts smoothly.

Cheesy scrambled eggs are an easy, yet luxurious breakfast option that can be made in minutes. By following these tips, you'll elevate a simple dish into a gourmet experience. Enjoy your meal with a side of toast or fresh fruits for a balanced start to your day.
