Scrambled Eggs With Flavor

Submitted by Chef #357640 Mapleleaf 60

"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"

• 4 large eggs
• 1 -2 medium green chili, chopped fine (the larger the chilli the less heat)
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons water

• 1⁄2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• salt, to taste (if using salted butter use less salt)

directions

1. In a bowl add eggs, salt, water and beat till whites and yolks are well blended. Fold in the chopped Cilantro & chillis.
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.

We had this for brunch today with recipe #211460. We don't like cilantro, so I used basil instead, but it was still great. Enjoyed by all. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
