Print Recipe

Silky scrambled eggs infused with subtle truffle oil aroma, enriched with tangy crème fraîche and fresh chives for a luxurious yet easy breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons crème fraîche
  • 1 teaspoon truffle oil (white or black)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, finely chopped
  • Salt to taste (preferably flaky sea salt like Maldon)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Optional: crusty bread or toasted brioche for serving
  • Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Crack 4 large eggs into a bowl. Add a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk vigorously until yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is slightly frothy, about 30 seconds.
  2. Place an 8-inch non-stick skillet over low heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Allow it to melt gently without browning, about 2 minutes.
  3. Pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Using a rubber spatula, stir slowly and continuously, scraping the bottom and sides to prevent sticking. Cook for 6-8 minutes until eggs thicken but remain soft and creamy.
  4. When eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny, remove the pan from heat. Gently fold in 2 tablespoons of crème fraîche without overcooking.
  5. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of truffle oil evenly over the eggs and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of finely chopped chives. Stir gently to distribute flavors.
  6. Transfer scrambled eggs immediately onto warm plates or toasted bread. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and additional black pepper if desired. Serve hot.

Notes

Keep heat low and stir gently but continuously to achieve ultra-creamy eggs. Add salt before whisking but adjust seasoning at plating. Add truffle oil at the end to preserve aroma. Avoid overheating crème fraîche to prevent curdling. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
