Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Chives, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and add the milk or cream, then whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
  2. In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium-low heat, ensuring it coats the bottom of the skillet evenly.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for about 30 seconds to allow the edges to start cooking.
  4. Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, pushing them from the edges toward the center, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny.
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat when the eggs are still a bit undercooked; the residual heat will continue to cook them.
  6. Season the scrambled eggs with salt and black pepper to taste, then gently fold in the chopped chives if using, and serve immediately.
