Method

1
Crack eggs in a large bowl and beat lightly with a whisk. Be careful not to overbeat.
2
Add 60g of butter to a small frying pan and melt over medium heat.
3
Add eggs and stir gently and continuously with a spatula until they are just set and still a bit runny.
TIP
While cooking the eggs, fold, push, and move them with a spatula. Be gentle, as this is important for the best texture. Careful stirring creates larger, softer curds and cooks the eggs evenly for a creamy texture. Avoid strong whisking or chopping, as this can break the eggs into small, dry pieces.
4
Remove the eggs from the heat and let them sit for 10 seconds to finish cooking. Fold in sour cream and remaining butter.
TIP
Scrambled eggs are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store and reheat leftovers for another delicious serving. Let them cool down and store them in an airtight container in the fridge. When you are ready to reheat the leftovers, warm them gently in a pan over low heat, stirring often to maintain the creamy texture.
5
Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with flat-leaf parsley. Serve on buttered toasted sourdough bread.

Everything about Scrambled eggs on toast

Scrambled eggs on toast is a classic. Whether you are a seasoned cook or new to the kitchen, our questions and answers below will help you get the perfect result every time.

  • For creamy scrambled eggs, cook them on medium-low heat. This prevents the eggs from getting tough and allows them to form soft folds. Stir the eggs slowly with a spatula to achieve a smooth, custardy texture and remove them from the heat just before they are fully set, as the residual heat in the pan will finish cooking them, ensuring they remain creamy. Avoid adding too much liquid, such as milk or water, as it can make the eggs overly runny and prone to overcooking. Perfectly cooked scrambled eggs should look shiny and moist, indicating they are creamy and not dry.
  • Take the eggs off the heat just before they are completely cooked to avoid overcooking them. The residual heat in the pan will continue to cook the eggs, even after removing the pan from the heat, preventing them from becoming dry. The right time to take them off the heat is when they are mostly set but still a little runny.
  • The secret to reheating scrambled eggs is using gentle heat and adding moisture. On the stovetop, place the eggs in a non-stick pan over low heat, add a bit of butter or milk, and stir gently until they are warmed through. In the microwave, put the eggs in a microwave-safe dish, sprinkle them with water or milk, cover with a damp paper towel, and heat on low power in 15-20 second intervals, stirring between each. In the oven, preheat to 150°C, place the eggs in an oven-safe dish, cover with foil, and heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
