Adding a generous handful of cheddar cheese to scrambled eggs can transform the breakfast staple into a creamier, more luxurious dish, according to a simple recipe.
The recipe, shared by travel reporter Vita Molyneux, suggests that a quarter cup of grated cheese added to four eggs produces a richer and more indulgent result. It requires minimal additional effort and is guaranteed to impress.
Choosing the Right Cheese
Cheddar is the preferred choice simply because it is commonly kept in the fridge, but virtually any variety of cheese will do the job. Softer cheeses such as feta or gruyere are particularly well-suited, as they melt most effectively.
All that is required is a handful — roughly a quarter cup — added to four eggs to produce a creamier, more flavoursome result.
Ingredients and Method
The recipe calls for four eggs, one tablespoon of butter, a quarter cup of grated cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
To prepare, whisk the eggs together in a small bowl. Melt the butter in a non-stick saucepan over a medium heat. Add the eggs and stir consistently to scramble them. After about two minutes, the eggs should be coming together in a soft scramble. Add the cheese and keep stirring until reaching the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
