Ingredients
  

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons whole milk or cream
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • to taste salt and black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives or parsley (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Crack eggs into a bowl and add milk or cream. Whisk until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until melted and coating the pan.
  • Pour in eggs and let them sit undisturbed for about 10 seconds until edges start to set.
  • Using a rubber spatula, gently push eggs from the edges toward the center, forming soft curds.
  • Continue gently folding and stirring until eggs are mostly set but still glossy and creamy.
  • Remove from heat to prevent overcooking. Eggs will finish cooking with residual heat.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
