Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large eggs (at room temperature)
salt
pepper (preferably white)
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 cup mushroom, sliced or chopped
1/2 teaspoon butter
4 tablespoons 35% cream (heavy)

Steps:

In a small bowl, crack the 2 large eggs and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Using a non-stick pan over medium high heat, gently heat the olive oil and begin to sauté the mushrooms, seasoning with salt and pepper and tossing gently.
It is important not to overcook the mushrooms.
Once they have been sautéed for 2 to 3 minutes, add the butter then the eggs.
Reduce heat to medium and gently work the scrambled eggs slowly from the outside of the pan to the centre.
If the heat is too high, the eggs will be rubbery.
Once the eggs start to take on the form of a scrambled-egg look, add the 35% cream & the chives.
This is the final touch& slows down the cooking of the eggs to ensure that they will be soft and tender.
Gently work in the cream for 10 to 15 seconds.
Remove from heat and serve.
