Perfect scrambled eggs

The minute I saw Gordon Ramsay's version of these scrambled eggs, they are now the only way I make them.
His video is easy to follow, but either way I decided to post it step by step. Start with this:

3 eggs
creme fraiche
butter
salt & pepper
fresh chives


2 other essential tools:
non-stick saucepan
silicone spatula


Why? Both are especially handy for this recipe, the non-stick pan will make stirring the eggs easier (believe me), as will the silicone spatula. Give it a try and you'll know what I mean.
In the video, Gordon outlines 3 things that are important for the perfect scrambled eggs.
1) do not whisk the eggs beforehand.
2) do not add salt straight away.
3) keep stirring, taking it off the heatsource a few times.


Heat the pan, take off the heat, crack in the eggs and butter, put it back on the stove and start stirring. From time to time, (about 4 times) take it off the heat, but keep stirring. When the eggs start to solidify a bit, add pepper, chives and about a tablespoon of creme fraiche. Keep stirring. Add a pinch of salt if you like at the END (I usually have it with bacon, so salty enough for me)

Off the heat

The chives aren't mandatory, there are various options, like chili flakes, parsley, chervil, experiment!
