Stephen's Simple Scrambled Eggs

Scrambled eggs. What can be more simple? Well, have you ever had those disgusting rubbery scrambled eggs on a plane? WTF? Who is cooking those eggs? Not me. I cook scrambled eggs how they should be cooked. Here's how:

Ingredients:

3 Eggs

2 nobs of Butter

What? Is there nothing else? No. The beauty of my scrambled eggs is its simplicity. Do not add anything else as it will ruin the end result. FFS this is not an omelette!

Put one nob of butter in a pan on low heat so the butter starts melting. Crack the 3 eggs into a bowl and add the 2nd nob of butter (but cut it into several small pieces before you add it in). Briefly whisk the eggs and butter pieces together - this is important as it infuses the eggs with the creamy butter. However, do not whisk too much - you want the eggs to have texture (the odd white bit makes it interesting).

Add the whisked eggs to the pan and turn the heat up a little (probably just under medium on a gas cooktop). Then constantly 're-position' the eggs on the pan until they are cooked evenly (that's the best word I can think of as you are not stirring or flipping). Also don't over cook them. Turn the heat off when the eggs are still runny and use the residual heat to finish the job.

Serve on some multi-grain toast and add some freshly cracked pepper to taste. Add some avocado and halved tomatoes so your Instagram post looks colorful and then enjoy! Qantas - take note!
