Scrambled eggs are a breakfast staple, and adding a handful of cheddar cheese can make them richer and more satisfying with minimal effort. This simple fridge staple transforms everyday eggs into a luxurious dish.
The Secret Ingredient
Cheddar is the go-to choice because it is often readily available, but any cheese works. Softer varieties like feta or gruyere melt most effectively. For four eggs, a quarter cup of cheese is all that is needed to achieve a creamier, more flavoursome result.
Simple Recipe
To try this, whisk four eggs in a bowl. Melt one tablespoon of butter in a non-stick saucepan over medium heat. Add the eggs and stir consistently. After about two minutes, the eggs should form a soft scramble. Add the cheese and keep stirring until the desired consistency is reached. Season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
