Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • salt (to taste)
  • ground black pepper (to taste)

Method

  1. Whisk the eggs and milk together in a small bowl until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
  2. Melt the unsalted butter in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, keeping the heat gentle from the start.
  3. Pour the egg mixture into the melted butter and let it sit undisturbed until a thin layer sets around the edge of the pan.
  4. Push the eggs slowly around the skillet with a rubber spatula, letting the unset egg flow into the gaps, until the curds look fluffy and barely set with a slight softness left.
  5. Season the scrambled eggs with salt and ground black pepper and serve them immediately, straight from the pan.
