Ingredients

4 Eggs
2 tbsp Heavy cream can be replaced with milk for a less creamy product
2 tbsp Unsalted butter
1/8-1/4 tsp Salt (to taste) If using sea salt use less

Instructions

Whisk eggs together in a large bowl until completely combined. At least 30 seconds.
Whisk in salt and heavy cream.
In a non-stick pan over a medium-low flame melt 1 Tbsp of butter.
Once the butter is melted and slightly bubbly pour in eggs.
With a silicon spatula gently fold the eggs towards the middle. Stir frequently until eggs begin to firm up.
Once curds begin to form slow stirring to allow larger curds to form. Fold into the middle and allowing liquid to run to the edges.
Add final Tbsp of butter once the eggs are mostly cooked.
Turn off the heat once the butter has been folded into the eggs. The eggs will continue to cook once off the heat so transfer to a plate promptly.
Serve and enjoy immediately.

Notes

We highly recommend using a whisk instead of a fork as it will be much easier to vigorously combine eggs. Ideally your eggs should be all one color with little to no separation.
