Ingredients

• 6 pieces large eggs
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups whole milk
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 4 servings bread, biscuits, or rice (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 9-10 minutes.

Step 2

Remove the eggs from the water and place them in an ice bath or under cold running water to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and slice them in half or quarters. Set aside.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.

Step 4

Gradually add the milk, about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking constantly to eliminate lumps. Once all the milk is incorporated, stir in the heavy cream.

Step 5

Continue to cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 3-4 minutes). Reduce the heat to low.

Step 6

Stir in the salt and black pepper. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 7

Gently fold in the sliced eggs, being careful not to break them apart too much. Let the eggs warm through in the sauce for 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Serve the creamed eggs over toasted bread, biscuits, or a bed of rice. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and chopped parsley, if desired.
