Easy scrambled eggs

Scrambled eggs are a classic breakfast staple, and making them fluffy and delicious doesn't require much effort. This recipe elevates the dish with the richness of milk and the smoothness of olive oil, creating a perfect start to your day. Easy to prepare, these scrambled eggs will quickly become a favorite in your morning routine.

Ingredients:

4 eggs
200g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g
1 tbsp milk (3.25% fat)
16g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Ingredients:
- Gather all the ingredients: 4 eggs, salt, black pepper, milk, and olive oil.
- Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
2. Whisk the Eggs:
- Add a dash of salt, a dash of black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of milk to the eggs.
- Use a whisk or a fork to beat the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
3. Heat the Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-low heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and allow it to heat up. The olive oil should be hot but not smoking.
4. Cook the Eggs:
- Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
- Let the eggs sit for a few seconds without stirring, allowing the edges to start setting.
- Use a spatula to gently stir and fold the eggs from the edges towards the center. Continue to cook while gently folding the eggs occasionally.
- Cook the eggs to your desired level of doneness. For soft, fluffy scrambled eggs, aim to remove them from the heat while they are still a bit moist, as they will continue to cook slightly from residual heat.
5. Serve:
- Immediately transfer the scrambled eggs to a serving plate.
- Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of additional black pepper or fresh herbs like chives or parsley.
6. Enjoy:
- Serve your fluffy scrambled eggs hot, along with your favorite sides like toast, bacon, or fresh fruit.

Tips:

- Beat the eggs thoroughly until the whites and yolks are fully combined for a uniform texture.

- Add the milk to the eggs to make them extra fluffy and to give a slight richness to the flavor.

- Preheat the pan with olive oil to ensure even cooking and to prevent the eggs from sticking.

- Cook on medium-low heat and stir gently to achieve the perfect creamy consistency without overcooking.

- Remove the eggs from the pan just before they are fully set, as they will continue to cook slightly from residual heat.

With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of technique, you can make scrambled eggs that are both fluffy and delicious. The combination of milk and olive oil not only enhances the flavor but also ensures a creamy texture that is hard to resist. Enjoy your perfectly scrambled eggs, whether they're part of a hearty breakfast or a light meal.
