Ingredients
  

For the Scrambled Eggs
  • 4 large eggs freshest available
  • 2 tablespoons milk, plant milk, or water unsweetened almond milk recommended for plant milk
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil or butter for the pan
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground, or to taste

Equipment

  • Whisk
  • Non-stick skillet

Method
 

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the milk (or water), salt, and pepper. Whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Heat the olive oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat until shimmering or melted.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit for about 30 seconds until the edges begin to set.
  4. Gently push the cooked eggs from the edges toward the center with a spatula, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue this process until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist.
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat. The residual heat will continue to cook the eggs to your desired consistency.
  6. Serve immediately.

Notes

This recipe serves as a base. Feel free to experiment with different additions like cheese, herbs, or vegetables once you master the basic technique. The key is to cook the eggs gently over low heat to achieve a creamy texture.
