Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 100 grams smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the cold water, salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk the ingredients together until well combined and the mixture is slightly frothy.
Step 2
Prepare the smoked salmon by roughly shredding it into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, add the egg mixture to the pan.
Step 4
Let the eggs sit without stirring for about a minute, allowing the edges to begin setting.
Step 5
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs in a circular motion, lifting and folding them so they cook evenly.
Step 6
Just before the eggs are fully set, add the smoked salmon to the pan. Continue to gently fold the eggs with the salmon, cooking for an additional one to two minutes until the eggs are softly set and slightly runny in places.
Step 7
Remove the pan from the heat. The residual heat will finish cooking the eggs to perfection.
Step 8
Sprinkle the chopped fresh chives over the scrambled eggs and give one final gentle fold.
Step 9
Transfer the scrambled eggs with salmon onto plates and serve immediately.
