"Learn how to make scrambled eggs in a pan with this simple, foolproof recipe. This quick breakfast is full of protein and takes only 10 minutes," reads the BBC Good Food website.

Ingredients:

• 2 large free-range eggs,
• 90 mL (about 6 tablespoons) of 30% cream or full-fat milk,
• a piece of butter.

Method:

1. Begin by gently whisking two large eggs, 90 mL of cream or full-fat milk, and a pinch of salt.
2. Whisk the ingredients until the mixture has a smooth, uniform consistency. Heat a small, non-stick pan over medium heat for about a minute, then add a small piece of butter. Allow it to melt, being careful not to let it brown, as this can affect the colour of the eggs.
3. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and leave it for about 20 seconds without stirring. Then gently stir with a wooden spoon, lifting the eggs from the bottom of the pan and folding them.
4. Let the eggs rest for another 10 seconds before stirring and folding again. Continue this process, allowing the eggs to gently set while leaving some liquidity.
5. When they are almost ready, remove the pan from the heat and let the residual heat finish cooking them. Stir the eggs one last time and serve the creamy, smooth scrambled eggs immediately.

Scrambled eggs are one of the simplest and quickest dishes, perfect for breakfast. Just a few ingredients are needed to create a tasty and filling dish. Eggs are rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals, making them an excellent choice to start the day. They can be prepared in many ways by adding various ingredients that enhance flavour and nutritional value.

Dietitian Dr. Bartosz Kulczyński recommends enhancing scrambled eggs with vegetables and spices such as onions, garlic, tomatoes, cilantro, or cumin. These additions improve taste and support health by acting as anti-inflammatory agents and boosting immunity. Experimenting with different ingredients allows the discovery of new, favourite flavour combinations.

Chinese-style scrambled eggs offer an interesting alternative to the traditional version. They are prepared with the addition of soy and sesame sauce and cooked by steaming. Although not everyone may like it, it has gained popularity on TikTok, where over 3 million people have already watched the video of its preparation. This is proof that experimenting in the kitchen is worth it.

Adding ingredients like bacon, spinach, or chanterelles to scrambled eggs can completely change their taste. Each of these additions brings something unique, from the crispiness of bacon to the delicacy of spinach. Thanks to this, scrambled eggs become not only tastier but also more nutritious. It's the ideal dish for those who value variety and healthy eating.
