Basic Scrambled Eggs Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 2–3 large eggs
- 1 tbsp butter (or oil)
- 1–2 tbsp milk, cream, or water (optional, for creaminess)
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Whisk eggs – In a bowl, beat eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add milk/cream if using.
2. Low heat – Melt butter in a non-stick pan over **low-medium heat** (don’t let it brown).
3. Cook slowly – Pour in eggs. Stir gently with a spatula, folding as curds form (about 3–5 min).
4. Remove early – Turn off heat just before fully set (they’ll keep cooking from residual heat).
5. Serve – Top with extra butter, chives, cheese, or hot sauce.

Pro Tips for the Best Scrambled Eggs
✔ Low & slow – High heat makes rubbery eggs.
✔ Constant stirring– Creates small, soft curds.
✔ Undercook slightly – They firm up off the heat.
✔ Add-ins – Try grated cheese, herbs, or diced veggies.

Variations
