Makes
Serves 2-3
Total Time
10 min (5 min prep)
Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
6 large eggs (pasture-raised preferred)
3 tbsp (45g) grass-fed butter
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream or coconut milk
1/2 tsp (3g) sea salt
1/4 tsp (0.5g) black pepper
For Garnish:
2 tbsp (8g) fresh chives, chopped
Steps
Whisk:
Crack eggs into medium bowl and whisk vigorously with heavy cream, sea salt, and black pepper until completely smooth and well combined.
Heat:
Place 2 tablespoons butter in non-stick or well-seasoned pan over low heat, allowing butter to melt slowly without browning.
Add:
Pour whisked egg mixture into warm pan and let sit for 20 seconds without stirring to begin gentle cooking process.
Stir:
Using rubber spatula, gently stir eggs by pushing from edges toward center, creating soft curds and allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath.
Continue:
Cook slowly over low heat, stirring gently every 20-30 seconds, allowing eggs to form creamy curds gradually without rushing the process.
Remove:
When eggs are almost set but still appear slightly wet and glossy, immediately remove pan from heat to prevent overcooking.
Finish:
Gently fold in remaining tablespoon of butter for extra richness, then garnish with fresh chopped chives and serve immediately while warm.
Make it Good For The Gut (Optional)
Replace heavy cream with grass-fed kefir or cultured buttermilk for probiotics and tangy flavor. Add 1 tablespoon ghee instead of some butter for easier digestion and gut-healing properties. Include 1 teaspoon fresh herbs like parsley or dill for additional digestive support and nutrients.
Remix Options
Fat Alternatives: Use coconut oil, avocado oil, or ghee instead of butter for different flavors and cooking properties. Cream Substitutes: Try coconut cream, cashew cream, or Greek yogurt for varied richness and nutrition profiles. Herb Variations: Add fresh dill, tarragon, parsley, or basil for different aromatic profiles and flavors. Add-Ins: Fold in goat cheese, cream cheese, smoked salmon, or sautéed vegetables during final cooking stage. Spice Options: Include turmeric for color and anti-inflammatory benefits, or paprika and garlic powder for savory depth. Cooking Methods: Try French technique with constant stirring, or gentle oven method at 325F (163C) for ultra-creamy texture.
Good To Know
Low Heat Importance: Keep temperature low to prevent proteins from coagulating too quickly, which creates tough, rubbery texture instead of creamy curds. Egg Quality: Pasture-raised eggs provide richer flavor, better nutrition, and more vibrant color – worth the investment for superior results. Timing Technique: Remove from heat while eggs still look slightly wet – residual heat finishes cooking for perfect creamy consistency. Pan Selection: Non-stick or well-seasoned pan prevents sticking and allows for gentle stirring without breaking delicate egg curds. Butter Strategy: Add butter in stages – some for cooking fat, remainder stirred in at end for extra richness and glossy finish. Storage Tips: Best served immediately while warm and creamy – reheating often results in tough, overcooked texture. Serving Ideas: Perfect with toast, smoked salmon, avocado, or as filling for breakfast burritos and sandwiches.
