Herb scrambled eggs and prosciutto bagels

Herb scrambled eggs and prosciutto bagels offer a delicious and gourmet twist on your typical breakfast. Perfect for weekend mornings or brunch gatherings, this recipe combines creamy scrambled eggs infused with herbs, crispy prosciutto, and a warm, toasted bagel for a satisfying and flavorful meal.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Start by chopping the chives finely.
- If using, halve and toast the bagels in a toaster.
2. Cook the Prosciutto:
- Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the prosciutto slices.
- Cook the prosciutto for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they become crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

3. Whisk the Eggs:
- In a mixing bowl, crack the 6 eggs.
- Add the 1/4 cup of milk (60g) and a pinch of salt and pepper to the eggs.
- Whisk the mixture well until the eggs and milk are fully combined.
4. Cook the Scrambled Eggs:
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low-medium and add 1 tablespoon of butter (16g). Let it melt completely.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
- Allow the eggs to cook without stirring for the first few seconds until they start to set slightly around the edges.
- Using a spatula, gently stir and push the eggs from the edges toward the center. Continue this process until the eggs are softly scrambled, with small curds forming but still slightly runny (about 5-7 minutes).
- Just before the eggs are fully cooked, add the chopped chives and give it a final gentle stir.
5. Assemble the Bagels (if using):
- On each toasted bagel half, layer a slice of crispy prosciutto.
- Spoon the scrambled eggs generously over the prosciutto.
6. Serve:
- Serve immediately, with additional salt and pepper to taste if desired.
- Enjoy your Herb Scrambled Eggs and Prosciutto Bagels either open-faced or as a sandwich!

Tips:

- To achieve the best texture for your scrambled eggs, cook them over low heat and stir continuously to keep them soft and creamy.

- Consider using fresh chives and other herbs to enhance the natural flavors of the eggs.

- Crisp up the prosciutto in a skillet before adding it to your bagel for an extra layer of texture and flavor.

- Lightly toast your bagels to add a pleasant crunch that complements the soft eggs and crispy prosciutto.

- Add a sprinkle of black pepper or a drizzle of truffle oil for an added touch of gourmet flair.
