Scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and chives on sourdough is a delightful and sophisticated dish that's perfect for breakfast or brunch. The creamy texture of the eggs paired with the rich taste of smoked salmon and the fresh, mild flavor of chives on a slice of sourdough bread will surely impress your taste buds.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk until well combined.
- Add the heavy whipping cream to the eggs and mix well.
- Chop the chives finely and set aside.
- Slice the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces.
- Rinse the spinach thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a large non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
- Once the butter has melted, pour in the egg mixture.
- Stir slowly and continuously with a spatula. Use gentle, sweeping motions to ensure even cooking.
- As the eggs begin to set, season with a dash of salt to taste.
- Just before the eggs are fully cooked (they should still be slightly runny), add the chopped chives and spinach.
- Continue to cook for another 1-2 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency. Remove from heat.
- While the eggs are cooking, toast the slices of sourdough bread until golden brown and crispy. You can use a toaster or grill them in a separate skillet with a little butter.
- Place a slice of toasted sourdough bread on each plate.
- Spoon the scrambled eggs mixture evenly over each toast slice.
- Top the scrambled eggs generously with the pieces of smoked salmon.
- Optionally, garnish with extra chives for a fresh touch.
- Serve immediately while hot.
Tips:
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to ensure a uniform mixture before cooking.
- Cook the eggs on low heat and stir continuously to achieve a creamy texture.
- Add the smoked salmon towards the end to prevent it from overcooking and to maintain its delicate texture.
- Use fresh chives for the best flavor – they add a subtle onion-like freshness that complements the eggs and salmon.
- Serve the eggs immediately to enjoy them at their best – creamy and warm.
- Pair this dish with a fresh salad or some fruits to balance the richness.
- Toast the sourdough bread to give it a crunchy texture which contrasts nicely with the soft, creamy eggs.
