Scrambled eggs on toast
Сообщение для российских читателей
Здравствуйте российские читатели. Ваша страна платит высокую цену за вторжение Путина в Украину. Путин лжет вам; не верьте кремлевской пропаганде. В России нет свободных СМИ, а интернет подвергается цензуре, потому что Путин не хочет, чтобы вы знали правду. За постыдное поведение Путина заплатят не только украинцы, но и добрые люди России. Пожалуйста, не допустите этого!
Hello Russian readers. Your country is paying a high price for Putin's invasion of Ukraine. Putin is lying to you; do not believe the Kremlin propaganda. There is no free media in Russia and the internet is censored because Putin doesn't want you to know the truth. It is not only the Ukrainians that will pay the price of Putin's shameful behaviour, so will the good people of Russia. Please do not let this happen!
Breakfast at the weekend can be delightfully indulgent, and sometimes the simple things are the most tempting of all. Throw in some interesting company, a little conversation and this uncomplicated breakfast, and that's my idea of heaven on a Sunday.
Information
- Makes: Two helpings
- Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 90ml (6tbsp) single cream
- Knob of butter
- Black pepper
- 4 slices of wholegrain bread
Method
- Beat the eggs lightly, add the cream and a generous twist of black pepper.
- Put a heavy-based saucepan on a medium heat and melt the butter until it begins to froth slightly. Take care not to make the butter too hot or it'll turn brown and turn the eggs a strange colour.
- Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan and let it sit without stirring for 10 or 15 seconds. This is a good time to put the bread in the toaster.
- Take a wooden spoon and fold the egg mixture. This means lifting the mixture from the bottom of the pan and back over on itself in a single motion.
- Give the mixture another 10 seconds or so, then fold it again. Keep doing this until the eggs are almost fully set (but not quite).
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and leave the eggs to stand for another 10 or 15 seconds to finish cooking. Meanwhile butter the toast and put onto two plates.
- Give the eggs a last quick stir, pile them onto the hot buttered toast, and serve with a pot of English Breakfast tea or fresh Columbian coffee.
