Soft Scrambled Eggs with Harissa image

Simple scrambled eggs get a spicy kick from North African hot chili-pepper paste (a little goes a long way). Available in the condiment aisle of many grocery stores, harissa packs welcome heat and complex flavor: lemon, garlic and sometimes smoke.

Time 15m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 large eggs
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons harissa paste
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Lightly beat the eggs in a medium bowl with some salt.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium nonstick skillet over low heat; swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Add the eggs and cook, stirring the eggs and scraping the sides and bottom of the skillet with a heatproof rubber spatula, until small curds form and the eggs are just set, 7 to 9 minutes.
  • Add the butter and harissa and gently fold in with the spatula until the butter is melted. Serve hot, seasoned with pepper.
