Scrambled Eggs (Oeufs Brouillés)

Submitted by diner524

"This is a recipe I found on Cuisine-France.com that I adapted, to add some cheese, in order to be like a hotel's French restaurant's eggs for brunch that I enjoyed. I am posting this for ZWT France leg of the race. Times weren't stated, so this is a guess, as this is untried by me as of now."

As far as I'm concerned, this is the ONLY way to eat scrambled eggs. I love them soft, almost underdone. Not those dry, rubbery things my mom used to make :) And the addition of the cream and cheese at the end makes them even better! Thanks for this keeper. Made for ZWT8.

These were wonderful - creamy and delicious! I used 2% milk instead of water. Surprisingly, these packed a lot of flavor and the richness of the cream and the cheddar definitely came through. Super simple, and definitely a technique to repeat! Made for ZWT8.

Totally delicious! Just what we needed on New Year's morning. So moist and flavorful, but not runny at all. Really enjoyed the cream and cheese at the end. Made for For Your Consideration tag game! Thanks for sharing.

I scaled this back for 1 serve planning on making I for my breakfast but the DM needed a light meal for her dinner tonight and I thought this would be perfect for her and I knew (hopefully) she would eat it all up and I was not wrong, I did err and cooked the eggs a few seconds too long to mix in the cheese and cream and though the cheese mixed in well the cream not so but the DM still declared it as delicious, thank you diner524 made for Please Review My Recipe tag game.

I have to say, this recipe makes some mighty tasty scrambled eggs. These are very creamy and delicious. I have made my scrambled eggs this way twice during the past week. Fast, easy and a super yummy meal. Thanks for another keeper, diner524. Made for May 2013 Aus/NZ Swap.
