Instructions
- 01
Prepare the ingredients: wash and slice the mushrooms and bell peppers. Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk together with the heavy cream until smooth and pale.
- 02
Heat the pan: place a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the butter. Let it melt completely and turn just barely foamy.
- 03
Cook the vegetables: add the mushrooms and bell peppers to the pan. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until softened and lightly golden at the edges.
- 04
Add the eggs: pour the egg mixture into the pan. Let it sit undisturbed for a few seconds, then gently stir with a spatula to begin forming soft curds.
- 05
Scramble to perfection: keep stirring slowly, pulling the eggs from the edges to the centre, until they are soft, creamy, and only just set. Take them off the heat a moment before they look done.
- 06
Season and serve: finish with flaky salt and a generous crack of black pepper. Garnish with fresh herbs if using and serve immediately while the eggs are still glossy.
- ✦Use the freshest eggs you can find — they hold their shape and taste markedly cleaner.
- ✦Cook on low to medium heat to keep the curds creamy and the eggs from turning rubbery.
- ✦A spoonful of grated cheese folded in at the end adds extra flavour and protein.
- ✦Swap the mushrooms for spinach or shredded chicken when you want to change the profile.
