Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 100 grams smoked salmon
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon chives
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl.
Step 2
Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined.
Step 3
Slice the smoked salmon into small bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Step 4
In a non-stick frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter until it just starts to sizzle.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture into the pan and allow it to set for a few seconds without stirring.
Step 6
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, moving them from the edges toward the center of the pan. Repeat this process every few seconds.
Step 7
Once the eggs are roughly halfway cooked, add the smoked salmon slices to the pan and fold them gently into the eggs.
Step 8
Continue to cook the eggs to your desired doneness, ensuring they remain soft and slightly runny.
Step 9
Remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle the chopped chives over the scrambled eggs.
Step 10
Serve the scrambled eggs hot, optionally garnished with additional chives or a slice of lemon.
