Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk or cream
- 1 tablespoon butter for cooking
- 1 minced garlic clove
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh herbs chives, dill, or parsley
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar or Gruyere cheese Optional
Instructions
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk or cream, salt, and pepper until well combined and slightly foamy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and melt the butter until shimmering.
- Add minced garlic to the pan and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant; do not let it brown. Stir in the fresh herbs.
Cooking
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for 30 seconds until the edges set slightly.
- Using a rubber spatula, gently push cooked egg from the edges towards the center, allowing uncooked egg to flow underneath; continue until mostly set but still moist.
- If using, stir in shredded cheese during the last minute of cooking.
Serving
- Remove from heat immediately to prevent overcooking and serve hot.
Notes
For extra richness, use heavy cream instead of milk. Adjust herbs to your preference, such as adding a touch of dried oregano, or add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
