Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 1/2 cup cream
- 1 cup cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup diced vegetables (bell peppers, onions)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients by dicing bell peppers and onions into small, uniform pieces, ensuring vegetables are fresh and crisp.
- Crack eggs into a large mixing bowl, carefully avoiding shell fragments. Whisk eggs thoroughly until they become smooth and slightly frothy.
- Add cream to the whisked eggs, continuing to blend until the mixture is well-incorporated and has a consistent light yellow color.
- Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper, adjusting to personal taste preference. Gently stir to distribute seasoning evenly.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, ensuring even temperature distribution across the cooking surface.
- Add diced vegetables to the skillet, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until they become slightly softened and develop a light golden color.
- Pour the seasoned egg and cream mixture over the sautéed vegetables, allowing it to spread evenly across the skillet.
- Cook the eggs without stirring for 3-4 minutes, allowing the bottom to set and develop a light golden color.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the surface of the cooking eggs, allowing it to begin melting.
- Gently fold the eggs, creating soft curds and ensuring even cheese distribution throughout the dish.
- Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring eggs are fully cooked but remain soft and creamy.
- Remove from heat and let rest for 1-2 minutes to allow residual heat to finish cooking and cheese to fully melt.
- Serve immediately on warm plates, garnishing with additional fresh herbs or cracked black pepper if desired.
Tips
- Use fresh, room-temperature eggs for the smoothest texture and most even cooking.
- Choose a high-quality non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Dice vegetables uniformly to ensure even cooking and consistent flavor distribution.
- Don't rush the cooking process - medium heat is key to achieving creamy, soft eggs.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like cheddar, gruyère, or goat cheese for unique flavor profiles.
- Fresh herbs like chives or parsley can add a beautiful finishing touch and extra flavor dimension.
- For a lighter version, you can substitute cream with milk or use only egg whites.
- Always season your eggs gradually and taste as you go to achieve the perfect flavor balance.
