TRANSCRIPT SNIPPET
Okay so this is going to change your life. Take three eggs — three — and crack them into the cold pan. Cold pan is the secret. Add a knob of butter, like the size of your thumb, and turn the heat to low. Now just stir. Constantly. For about four minutes...
WHAT YOUR AI HANDED BACK
The cold-pan scramble
- 3 large eggs (cold)
- 30 g unsalted butter
- Pinch of salt, chopped chives to finish
Method
- Crack the eggs into a cold non-stick pan. Add the butter on top.
- Set heat to low. Stir constantly with a silicone spatula.
- After ~4 min curds will start forming. Pull off heat 10 seconds before they look done — residual heat finishes them.
- Plate, salt lightly, finish with chives.
Hidden tip from the on-screen caption: never stop stirring or you get patchy texture.
