Discover the secret to the BEST Scrambled Eggs!

These eggs are incredibly creamy, silky, and boast a luscious mouthfeel. Unlike dry and chewy alternatives, these scrambled eggs feature soft curds that melt in your mouth.

The key to their perfection lies not only in the use of cream (a known ingredient) but also in a discreet cornflour slurry, preventing overcooking and ensuring a consistently soft and lush texture.

Forget the low heat myth—these eggs are ready in under 1 minute! It’s time to elevate your scrambled egg game with this foolproof recipe.

How to make

Prepare and cook these quick and easy scrambled eggs effortlessly. Have your favourite toast and accompaniments ready before cooking, as these eggs take only about 1 minute to cook. When cooking, gently push the eggs around the frypan—DO NOT stir them! Be ready to enjoy a delicious breakfast or snack in no time.

  • Crack eggs into a bowl.
  • Add thickened cream, cornflour slurry, and salt to the eggs, then whisk to combine.
  • Melt butter in a non-stick frying pan until bubbly.
  • Add the egg mixture and wait for 10 seconds.
  • Gently push the outer egg mixture toward the centre of the frying pan and wait a few seconds.
  • Repeat this process until the eggs are nearly cooked through.
  • Remove from heat and serve immediately. Enjoy your creamy and delicious scrambled eggs!

What to serve with scrambled eggs

  1. Toast: Classic and simple, a side of toast complements scrambled eggs perfectly. You can use regular bread, bagels, English muffins, or your favourite type of toast.
  2. Hash Browns, Fries or Potato Gems: Crispy and golden hash browns or home fries or gems add a delightful texture contrast to the creamy eggs.
  3. Avocado Slices: Creamy avocado slices provide a healthy and rich element that pairs well with the softness of scrambled eggs.
  4. Bacon or Sausage: For a heartier meal, serve with crispy bacon strips or your favourite sausage.
  5. Grilled Tomatoes: Lightly seasoned and grilled tomatoes add a burst of flavour and juiciness to the plate.
  6. Sauteed Spinach or Greens: For a nutritious boost, sautéed spinach or other leafy greens make a great side dish.
  7. Baked Beans: who can say ‘NO’ to the ever favourite baked beans?
  8. Prosciutto: For a sophisticated breakfast or brunch, serve some crispy prosciutto on the side or lay over the top for a fancy feast.
  9. Chutney or Relish: Dollop on some of your favourite savoury chutney for a nice contrast in colour and flavour. Think Tomato Kasundi, Tomato relish, chilli jam or roasted garlic chutney.

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons thickened cream
  • 1 teaspoon cornflour mixed to a slurry with 1 teaspoon water
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 20g butter

Instructions

  • Crack eggs into a bowl. Add cream, cornflour slurry and salt. Whisk to combine.
  • Melt butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium high heat. Once butter is bubbling, quickly pour in the egg mixture. Allow to sit for 20 seconds.
  • Using a spatula, gently bring the outside eggs to the middle of the frying pan. Do not stir the eggs. Just gently push them around the pan. Allow to sit for 10 seconds then continue to repeat this process until the eggs are NEARLY set but not quite. (they will continue to cook once off the heat for a minute or two) Remove immediately from heat and divide between serving plates. Serve with toast and sides of choice

Notes

  • COOKS NOTES:
    Oven Temps: 
    Oven temperatures are for conventional, if using fan-forced (convection), reduce the temperature by 20˚C.
    Measurements: We use Australian tablespoons and cups: 1 teaspoon = 5 ml, 1 tablespoon = 20 ml & 1 cup =  250 ml.
    Herbs: All herbs are fresh (unless specified) and cups are lightly packed.
    Vegetables: All vegetables are medium size and peeled, unless specified.
    Eggs: We use extra-large size and eggs are 55-60 g each, unless specified.
  • NEED TO MAKE EXTRA?
    I suggest you make this recipe as is and then make another batch (or more) to serve more people. This works better than doubling the recipe and cooking at one time.
  • NUTRITION INFORMATION
    This is a guide only and may not be exact. It does not include your choice of toast/bread or other sides you may serve with it.

Asian Pork & Broccolini Bowls ✨RECIPE✨ These Asian Pork & Broccolini Bowls ✨RECIPE✨

These pork bowls are SOOOO quick and easy to make and everyone, including the kids will enjoy it!

Not a fan of pork? Simply swap the pork mince out for extra lean beef, chicken or turkey!  You could also swap the broccolini out for snow peas, more green beans, Asian greens, zucchini or regular broccoli. 🥦 Simply use what’s you have or what your family enjoys! It’s very versatile - leave the chilli 🌶️ out or add more depending on your heat tolerance. 😎

Have a Happy day 🌺🌈

RECIPE ⬇️

Asian Pork & Broccolini Bowls
 
INGREDIENTS: - Serves 4

1 tablespoon oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped 
1/2 long red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped (Optional)
500g Extra Lean pork mince (or your choice of mince)
2 bunches broccolini, cut into 3cm lengths
1 cup chopped green beans
2 spring onions, cut into 3cm lengths

STIR-FRY SAUCE:
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon kecap manis
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons brown sugar or honey
2 teaspoons cornflour

TO SERVE:
Cooked rice of choice 
Finely shredded carrot
Spring onions, sliced, extra to garnish
Herb to garnish if desired (I used some Thai basil as that’s what I had)

1 Combine Stir-Fry Sauce ingredients in a jug or bowl until throughly combined. Set aside.
2 Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium high heat. Add the garlic and chilli (if using) and cook for 30 seconds. Crumble in the pork mince then cook, breaking up with a spoon for 5 minutes or until cooked through. 
3 Add the broccolini and green beans. Cook, stirring for 2 minutes or until just starting to soften. Add the prepared Stir-Fry Sauce and the spring onions and cook for a further 1-2 minutes or until vegetables are just soft (but still a little crunchy) and the sauce has thickened.
4 Serve with rice and garnish with shredded carrot, extra spring onions, sliced red chilli (if using) and a sprig of herbs. Enjoy 😊

HEALTHY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS Recipe! This was lunch HEALTHY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS Recipe! 

This was lunch yesterday! Couple of my zucchini fritters with a poached egg, green leafy salad and a side of cherry tomatoes, red onion and some @stickybalsamic pearls. 

You could of course do so many things with these fritters. Serve with bacon, avocado, toast, smoked salmon, in a sandwich or wrap…the list is endless. 

Recipe below. I made them in my Thermomix but I have given directions for using a food processor. You could even just mix in a bowl. Just make sure you squeeze as much liquid as possible from the zucchini. You want the mixture to be quite firm so that you can almost shape them in the palm of your hand 🖐️ 

HEALHTY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS

Makes 8 

600g zucchinis
2 teaspoons salt, divided
100g grated mozzarella
50g grated light cheese
2 spring/green onions, roughly chopped
1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/2 cup basil leaves
1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
1 1/2 teaspoon garlic granules
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
75g (1/2 cup) wholemeal self-raising flour
125g can corn kernels, drained

1 Grate the zucchini into a bowl. Add the 1 teaspoon of the salt and mix to combine. Transfer onto a clean tea towel, chux or cheesecloth and wring out to remove as much liquid as possible. (Squeeze this really well then squeeze again)

2 Place cheese, spring/green onions, parsley, basil, oregano, garlic granules, cumin, pepper and remaining salt into a food processor. Mix until throughly combined. 

3 Add the zucchini, egg and flour. Process until combined. Add the corn and fold through. The mixture should be quite firm . If it’s too wet, add some more flour. (you almost want to be able to shape them with your hands kinda firm).

4 Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add 4 heaped spoonful of the mixture and flatten with the back of a spatula. Cook for 4-5 minutes each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining mixture and a little more oil. Cool on a wire rack  and serve as desired.

Spiced Salmon with Couscous, Vegetables and Balsam Spiced Salmon with Couscous, Vegetables and Balsamic Pearls. 

This was such a healthy and delicious dinner!

I pretty much had a fridge raid on my vegetable drawer! I roasted some cauliflower, zucchini, red onion and capsicum and also did some steamed greens 🥦 

For the salmon , I made a dry rub with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chilli flakes, brown sugar, dried oregano and S & P.  I lightly oiled the fish then sprinkled the rub over to coat. Baked in a 180C air fryer for 6 minutes! 

I served all this with @ainsleyfoodscompany Moroccan medley couscous, a light sprinkle of crumbled feta and topped it off with the lovely  @stickybalsamic balsamic pearls for a burst of flavour in every bite!! (See Link in bio)

It was a cracker of a dish my friends 💚🍣

Have. fabulous Friday 🥂 😁
