Description

Scrambled eggs are a breakfast classic, but there's a simple secret that can elevate them from ordinary to extraordinary: mayonnaise. This trick, passed down by many home cooks, including my nana, adds a delightful creaminess to the eggs that you won’t get with any other ingredient. The mayonnaise blends seamlessly into the eggs, enhancing their texture without altering their flavor. Whether you’re making breakfast for yourself or cooking for guests, these scrambled eggs will leave everyone asking for your secret!

Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons mayonnaise (1 teaspoon for every 2 eggs)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Optional garnish: chopped fresh herbs (like parsley or chives)

Preparation Method

1. Gather ingredients: eggs, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, butter, and optional garnishes.
2. In a bowl, crack eggs and mix with mayonnaise until smooth.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low and melt butter without browning it.
4. Pour egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit for 10-15 seconds.
5. Gently stir eggs from edges to center until cooked evenly.
6. Remove from heat when eggs are slightly runny to finish cooking.
7. Season with salt and pepper, add herbs if desired, and serve warm.

Tips and Conclusion

Bonus Tip:

For an extra layer of flavor, you can experiment by adding a small amount of shredded cheese or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture before cooking. The cheese will melt into the eggs, making them even richer, while the hot sauce can provide a subtle kick that pairs beautifully with the creaminess of the eggs.

Conclusion:

These creamy scrambled eggs, with the secret addition of mayonnaise, are a game-changer for breakfast lovers. The mayonnaise adds a velvety texture that takes this simple dish to the next level, while the slow cooking method ensures the eggs are tender and perfectly cooked. This recipe is easy to make, but the results are so luxurious that they feel like a special treat. Once you try this method, you’ll never go back to regular scrambled eggs again!
