Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 100 grams smoked salmon
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon chives

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined.

Step 2

Add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper to the eggs and whisk together until smooth.

Step 3

Chop the smoked salmon into bite-sized strips and finely chop the chives. Set these aside.

Step 4

In a nonstick skillet, melt the butter over low heat, making sure it doesn't brown.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook for 10–20 seconds without stirring to let the edges set slightly.

Step 6

Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, moving them around the skillet in slow, folding motions to form large, soft curds.

Step 7

When the eggs are about halfway cooked and still slightly runny, fold in the chopped smoked salmon.

Step 8

Continue stirring gently until the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency, ensuring they remain creamy and moist.

Step 9

Immediately remove the skillet from the heat to prevent overcooking.

Step 10

Plate the scrambled eggs and garnish with diced chives before serving.
