Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the onion.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
