Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 4 ounces low-sodium smoked salmon
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons milk (optional for creamier eggs)
Directions
Step 1
Crack the eggs into a medium bowl. If using, add milk to the eggs for extra creaminess. Beat the mixture with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are thoroughly combined and no streaks remain.
Step 2
Finely chop the fresh dill and set aside. Ensure the salmon is cut into small, bite-sized pieces.
Step 3
In a nonstick skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat, ensuring it coats the bottom of the skillet evenly.
Step 4
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Allow them to sit, undisturbed, for a few moments until they just begin to set at the edges.
Step 5
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing the cooked portions from the edges toward the center. This allows the uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
Step 6
When the eggs are almost set but still slightly runny, add the smoked salmon pieces and chopped dill.
Step 7
Continue cooking while gently folding the mixture until the eggs are fully set but still moist and soft. Be careful not to overcook as the residual heat will continue to cook the eggs.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from the heat, and season the eggs with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Step 9
Serve immediately, garnished with a sprig of dill if desired.
