Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon fresh chives
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
• 0.25 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 2 slices sourdough bread (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and add the heavy cream, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until well combined and smooth.

Step 2

Finely chop the fresh chives and parsley and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and add the butter. Allow it to melt gently without browning.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Using a spatula, stir the eggs continuously and slowly in small circles, scraping the bottom of the pan as they cook.

Step 5

After about 4-5 minutes, as the eggs begin to thicken but are still creamy, stir in the chopped herbs. Continue stirring for another minute until just set but still soft and silky.

Step 6

Remove the skillet from heat immediately to avoid overcooking. The residual heat will finish cooking the eggs to perfection.

Step 7

If desired, toast the sourdough bread slices and serve the elegant eggs over the toast or on the side.

Step 8

Garnish with additional chopped herbs, if preferred, and serve immediately.
