How to Cook Scrambled Eggs Perfectly Every Time

 

 

Fluffy, creamy scrambled eggs are easier than you think! With the right technique, you can achieve perfect results every single time.”

Ingredients

4 large eggs

2 tablespoons milk, cream, or water (optional, for extra creaminess)

1 tablespoon butter (or oil, for cooking)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Crack and Whisk the Eggs

Crack the eggs into a bowl.

Add milk, cream, or water if desired. This step adds creaminess and lightens the eggs.

Whisk the eggs thoroughly with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined. The mixture should be slightly frothy.

Step 2: Heat the Pan

Heat a nonstick skillet over low to medium-low heat.

Add the butter and let it melt, ensuring it coats the bottom of the pan evenly. Avoid browning the butter.

Step 3: Cook the Eggs

Pour the whisked eggs into the pan.

Let the eggs sit undisturbed for 10–15 seconds until they begin to set around the edges.

Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center of the pan. Tilt the pan slightly to allow the uncooked eggs to flow into the cleared space.

Step

4: Fold and Finish

 

1. Repeat the process of pushing and folding until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny.

Remove the pan from the heat; the residual heat will finish cooking the eggs.

Step 5: Season and Serve

Sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
