Description
Saffron-infused Scrambled Eggs are a gourmet twist on traditional scrambled eggs, combining the rich flavor and vibrant color of saffron with creamy eggs for a luxurious breakfast experience.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs – Fresh eggs are essential for a rich and creamy texture.
- 1/4 cup milk or cream – This adds creaminess and helps the eggs fluff up nicely.
- A pinch of saffron threads – The star ingredient that gives the dish its unique flavor and color.
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter – For cooking the eggs and adding a rich taste.
- Salt and pepper to taste – Essential seasonings to enhance the overall flavor.
- Fresh chives or parsley for garnish – Adds a pop of color and freshness to the dish.
Instructions
- Infuse the saffron by gently warming the milk or cream and adding a pinch of saffron threads. Let it steep for about 10 minutes.
- Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl, pour in the saffron-infused milk, and add salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined.
- Melt butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, then pour in the egg mixture. Let it sit until the edges start to set, then gently stir.
- Remove from heat when the eggs are slightly runny and let residual heat finish cooking. Garnish with fresh chives or parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
- Cook over medium-low heat to avoid rubbery eggs.
- Stir gently to maintain fluffiness.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
