Sunday special: scrambled eggs with a secret


At my house it's always eggs for breakfast on a Sunday. And so it was this Sunday as well. Scrambled eggs is one of those things that anyone can do and everyone has their preferred way of doing  - scrambled vigorously or just a little bit, well-cooked or runny. And then there are numerous things that you can add to them, not just butter. I share with you my new favourite way: what you see in the picture is not just bacon and chive. The secret ingredient here is coarsely ground (or hammered) pepper and coriander seeds to add a little twist to it.


First you fry the bacon, cut into smaller pieces or pre-cut into cubes.Then you add the eggs, chives, pepper and coriander and mix it together over medium heat. Smoked bacon is usually already quite salty, so I skip the salt, but you need to know your bacon.
To my mind, the best way to eat scrambled eggs is on a piece of fresh bread with butter, allowing the butter to melt underneath warm eggs.


Buon appetito!
