Scrambled Eggs With Flavor

Recipe #192819 | 16 min | 10 min prep | add private note

Scrambled eggs made this way is more of comfort food, the addition of fresh cilantro and flavorful fragant green chilli makes it a Sunday Brunch favorite Or as a side dish for a light evening meal , also good for those just getting over a fever, cold as it helps kick start the tastebuds again! I go all the way and make it with Butter- Note do not let the eggs get hard or dry by overcooking them. These can be served with Hot toast. Or as a filling in for a wholewheat wrap e.g. a tortilla or Indian flat bread cook the eggs a little more

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1-2 medium green chilies, chopped fine (the larger the chilli the less heat)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon cooking oil
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • salt, to taste (if using salted butter use less salt)

Directions

  1. 1
    In a bowl add eggs, salt, water and beat till whites and yolks are well blended. Fold in the chopped Cilantro & chillis.
  2. 2
    In a skillet on medium heat add oil & butter till melted-- add the egg mixture, let the eggs cook and keep mixing with a slow movement till egg mixture takes shape ,keep folding, lightly stirring till mixture is not runny. Switch off the heat. The cooked eggs should have a sheen on the surface and should slip off easily from the skillet without sticking.
  3. 3
    SERVE with hot toast no need to butter the toast.
  4. 4
    Use it as a filling with a tortilla but you will have to cook the eggs a minute more.

We had this for brunch today with Hearty Breakfast. We don't like cilantro, so I used basil instead, but it was still great. Enjoyed by all. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
