Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients and ensure they are fresh. If using optional ingredients like cheese, tomatoes, or spinach, dice the tomatoes and chop the spinach.

  2. 2

    Beat the Eggs

    Crack the eggs into a bowl and add the salt and black pepper. Whisk until the yolks and whites are well combined.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Melt the Butter

    In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam and sizzle.

  2. 4

    Cook the Eggs

    Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Allow them to sit for a few moments before gently stirring with a spatula, pushing the eggs from the edges toward the center. Continue to cook until the eggs are just set but still slightly runny.

  3. 5

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If using, sprinkle the cheese, diced tomatoes, and spinach over the eggs as they cook. Fold them into the eggs gently.

  4. 6

    Finish and Serve

    Once the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness, remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle chopped fresh chives on top and serve immediately.
