Equipment: Small non-stick pan

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 10 g butter

Optional extras

  • Salt and black pepper
  • Snipped chives
  • A little grated cheddar
  • A slice of smoked salmon

Method

  1. Beat the eggs in a bowl with a fork.
  2. Melt the butter in a pan over a low heat. Add the eggs and stir slowly and often.
  3. Take the pan off the heat while the eggs still look slightly wet; they finish cooking on the plate. Add any extras.

Swaps and tips

Use olive oil instead of butter for a dairy-free version. Low and slow gives the softest eggs. After training, add a fourth egg.
