Creamy Scrambled Eggs

[fabemmy]

Anyone know how to make creamy scrambled eggs, I once had some in a hotel and they was delious but I havnt a clue how to make them creamy.

I make mine by mixing the egge butter salt and pepper with a fork till broken down, put in a pan allowing to slowly come to the heat stirring very gently, not breaking them up too much. Once they are at the bubbling stage and ALMOST cooked, add some cream and stir through till warmed up.

Also, I love cheesy scrambled eggs too doing the same but instead of cream adding a wee drop of milk and at the last minute adding some grated cheese - really lovely. I am known for the scrambled eggs I make - give it a go!!!

Instead of adding milk to the mixture, add single cream instead and beat up.

Thanks those ideas are great.

Milk in scrambled egg ??????? Yuk !!!

Mix 3 eggs up in a pan, add salt, pepper and nutmeg, add a knob of real butter and a dash of double cream then cook over a medium heat, stirring continuously.

When "nearly" cooked, turn the heat off and allow the residual heat of the saucepan to finnish them off.

Serve with crusty toasted bread and half a tin of cold beans on top ;o)

Surely a splash of milk is an inherent part of scrambled eggs?!

Bill Granger is well known for his scrambled eggs! I've not tried them, but now you mention it, I think I will!!!!!

Why cold beans, hammerman?

[hammerman]

Try scrambled eggs without milk next time winebuyer...i used to add milk all the time but i've been converted now.

Cold beans Bathsheba (is that a province in Barbados ?)....simply the best in my very humble opinion !!!

Cream does make a difference... and so does stirring continuously... don't let the eggs cook on the bottom of the pan, but continue stirring and scraping the bottom all the way through... its harder work, but the outcome is much creamier :)

Scrummy.

hammerman, no eggs ... I'll give it a whirl on Sunday morning. W

ps. Why did I say milk was an "inherent" part of scrambled eggs? As you obviously realized, the word I was looking for was "integral".

[hammerman]

Winebuyer...try a dusting of nutmeg as you're whisking up the eggs...not too much as it's quite strong. Dash of salt and lots of pepper are a must too !!!

[winebuyer]

Okay, thanks hammerman. W

BTW, did u know that nutmeg used to be worth more than its weight in gold. A man could carry a bag of nutmeg worth enough to set him up in luxury his entire life. And now we can chuck it in our scrambled eggs!!!

Sorry.

[Ice.Maiden]

I think nutmeg tastes horrible - sorry - and it's also poisonous in large quantity.

[winebuyer]

I won't put too much in the scrambled eggs then!!!

[Ice.Maiden]

Ah! but if you use your loaf.......

[winebuyer]

... to make the toast on which to eat the scrambled eggs, of course. Very good ice m.

Thank you - and btw - this is to hammerman - I ALWAYS use milk in scrambled eggs. Without it, the mixture gets too "heavy", surely?
