Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • Toasted bread, for serving (optional)
  • Fresh parsley or chives, chopped (optional garnish)

Directions

  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and add the milk, salt, and black pepper.
  • Whisk until the mixture is completely combined and slightly frothy.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter until it coats the pan.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit for about 5 seconds.
  • Using a rubber spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center in long, slow strokes.
  • Continue folding and stirring gently as the eggs cook, allowing soft curds to form.
  • Remove the pan from the heat when the eggs are mostly set but still slightly glossy. The residual heat will finish cooking them.
  • Serve immediately on warm toast or with your favorite breakfast sides. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives if desired.
