Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 100 grams smoked salmon
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 slices whole grain toast (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk them with the milk until fully combined. Add the salt and black pepper and mix again.
Step 2
Roughly chop the smoked salmon into bite-sized pieces and finely chop the fresh chives. Set them aside.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add the unsalted butter. Allow it to melt completely, swirling the pan gently to coat the surface.
Step 4
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Let it sit undisturbed for 20–30 seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges toward the center for soft, fluffy curds.
Step 5
When the eggs are about three-quarters of the way cooked, fold in the smoked salmon pieces. Continue to cook gently until the eggs are just set and creamy. Remove from heat immediately.
Step 6
Sprinkle the chopped chives over the eggs and give them a light stir.
Step 7
Serve the scrambled eggs hot, either on their own or over slices of whole grain toast for a heartier option.
