Ingredients

  • - Eggs: 4 large 4
  • - Cheddar Cheese: ½ cup grated (120 grams)
  • - Butter: 1 tablespoon 15 grams
  • - Whole Milk: 2 tablespoons 30 ml
  • - Salt: ¼ teaspoon 1.25 ml
  • - Black Pepper: ¼ teaspoon 1.25 ml
  • - Chives optional: 2 tablespoons, finely chopped (30 grams)
  • - Red bell pepper optional: 2 tablespoons, finely diced (30 grams)

Instructions

  • Start by cracking the 4 large eggs into a mixing bowl.
  • Pour in the 2 tablespoons of whole milk.
  • Whisk the eggs and milk together until the mix is uniform.
  • Season the mixture with ¼ teaspoon of salt and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper.
  • Heat up a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
  • Add the 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt completely.
  • Pour the egg mixture into the pan.
  • Allow the eggs to sit untouched for a few moments till they start to set at the bottom.
  • Start stirring gently with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges towards the center.
  • When the eggs are halfway done, sprinkle the ½ cup of grated cheddar cheese evenly.
  • Add in the optional chives and red bell pepper if you're using them.
  • Continue to stir until the eggs are fully set but still moist.
  • Remove from heat immediately to avoid overcooking.

Notes

Tips:
  • Always use a non-stick pan for best results.
  • Don’t over-whisk the eggs; it's about mixing, not beating them into oblivion.
  • Feel free to experiment with different cheeses for a twist.
  • Using fresh eggs can make a world of difference in taste.
