Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.125 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl.

Step 2

Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

Step 3

Whisk the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper together until well combined and the mixture is pale yellow.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.

Step 5

Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt, tilting the skillet to ensure the bottom is evenly coated.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.

Step 7

Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until they start to set around the edges.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges to the center. Continue to cook gently, folding the eggs over themselves every few seconds.

Step 9

Continue cooking until the eggs are creamy and just set, with a soft texture. Avoid overcooking as the eggs will continue to cook from residual heat.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the scrambled eggs to a plate.

Step 11

Sprinkle the fresh chives on top if using, and serve immediately.
