Creamy Herb Scrambled Eggs on Toasted Brioche

Ingredients

For the Scrambled Eggs

  • 6 free-range eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp milk or cream
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the Toast

  • 4 thick slices of brioche (or sourdough)
  • 2 tbsp butter

To Finish

  • Fresh chives, finely chopped
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • Parmesan, finely grated (optional)
  • A handful of baby rocket or microgreens
  • Freshly cracked black pepper

Method

1. Prepare the Toast

Butter each slice of brioche and toast in a frying pan or toaster until golden and crisp.

2. Cook the Eggs

Whisk together the eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, and pepper.

Melt the butter in a non-stick pan over low heat.

Pour in the eggs and stir slowly with a spatula, gently folding them as they cook. Remove from the heat while they're still soft and creamy, they'll continue cooking from the residual heat.

3. Assemble

Spread the scrambled eggs generously over the warm toast.

Sprinkle over the Parmesan (if using), chopped herbs, and a few rocket leaves or microgreens.

Finish with freshly cracked black pepper.
