How to make Scrambled Eggs

  1. Step 1

    Carefully separate the egg yolks from the egg whites.

  2. Step 2

    In a bowl, beat the egg whites until slightly frothy.

  3. Step 3

    Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and add a small amount of butter or oil.

  4. Step 4

    Pour the beaten egg whites into the skillet and stir gently with a spatula.

  5. Step 5

    Once the whites start to set slightly, add the yolks to the whites and stir carefully to avoid overcooking the yolks.

  6. Step 6

    Remove from heat while the eggs are still slightly underdone, as they will continue to cook from residual heat.

  7. Step 7

    Add salt and pepper to taste only after cooking is complete.
