- 8 min
- Serves 2
- 5 ingredients
5 minutes to prep, 3 to cook. These fluffy, buttery scrambled eggs are quick and easy, using just two eggs, a splash of water, and a touch of butter for extra richness.

Method
Whisk two eggs together in a bowl until smooth.
Add a quarter teaspoon of water and whisk until the mixture is uniform (about 30 seconds).
Preheat a non‑stick pan over just under medium heat (about 3 minutes).
Melt one teaspoon of butter in the pan until slightly foamy.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let it sit briefly to form a thin skin.
Gently stir and push the eggs around the pan, keeping them moving but not over‑stirring, until they are softly set and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
