Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 3 stalks green onions
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Crack the large eggs into a medium-sized bowl.
Step 2
Add 2 tablespoons of milk to the eggs and beat them thoroughly with a whisk until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3
Wash and finely chop the green onions. Set aside.
Step 4
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 5
Once the oil is hot, add the chopped green onions to the skillet and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until they are soft and fragrant.
Step 6
Lower the heat to medium-low and add the beaten eggs to the skillet.
Step 7
Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, scraping the bottom of the pan as they cook to form soft curds.
Step 8
Continue to cook and gently stir the eggs for about 3-4 minutes or until they are mostly set but still slightly runny. Be careful not to overcook.
Step 9
Season the eggs with a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning as desired, keeping in mind this is a low sodium recipe.
Step 10
Remove the pan from the heat and serve the scrambled eggs immediately, garnished with extra green onion slices if desired.
