Instructions
- Step 1: Crack the 6 eggs into a mixing bowl and beat them until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Step 2: Add 2 tablespoons of crème fraîche to the beaten eggs and mix it in thoroughly.
- Step 3: Place a non-stick skillet over low heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Let it melt gently.
- Step 4: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and stir continuously, scraping the bottom to prevent sticking.
- Step 5: Keep the heat on low and continue stirring. If the eggs cook too quickly, remove from heat briefly.
- Step 6: Once the eggs begin to thicken but are still slightly runny, season with salt and pepper.
- Step 7: When the eggs are creamy and just set, remove from heat.
- Step 8: Transfer to a plate and garnish with freshly chopped chives. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Fresh, high-quality eggs are crucial for the best flavor.
- Crème fraîche can be substituted with sour cream or Greek yogurt.
- For a richer version, add grated cheese before serving.
- Practice makes perfect; don’t be discouraged by initial attempts.
