Scrambled Eggs
Today, I'll share with you about eggs and how they can be formulated and prepared into Scrambled Eggs!!! Scrambled Eggs are easy to prepare and can keep you full longer because its protein based. If you watch Channel News Asia, there's a Documentary called "The truth about food". It conducted tests and found that a protein rich meal can keep an individual full the longest!! This makes it the best solution if you're looking to budget and to keep slim. Just don't use too many eggs!!
Scrambled Eggs or Omelettes can be bought from most western food hawkers or you could go to an actual restaurant for one. Prices range from $2.00-4.50 depending on where you're having it. In my opinion, you're just better off preparing one yourself.
When it comes to preparing Scrambled Eggs, try to use 1-2eggs( I normally go for 2). Beat them up into a bowl and add in milk. I don't add a fixed amount of milk, I simply gauge this my making sure not to put too much that it ends up making my eggs seem watery. The reason for adding milk with the eggs, I think is to make the omelette fluffy and soft. Anyways, you want to add enough milk so that when you continue whisking the eggs, they begin to have a smooth and creamy texture. As it is, when you whisk the eggs without the milk added, you can notice that they are rather viscous and thick. You can add oregano, pepper and even mint for taste and fragrance. I prefer only pepper and mint to garnish it.
Finally to the cooking, make sure you use butter not oil. It adds to the flavour ^_^. Pour in the whisked up eggs and watch over the it. Do it on a high heat first. When the bottom layer of the eggs are cooked, fold it over and let the rest of the egg solution cooked and simply repeat this. Once you've done the 1st fold over, set the heat to medium and finally low when all of the egg solution has been cooked. I recommend leaving it half cooked so that it doesn't become hard and loses its texture. You should try to go for a "medium-rare" sort of Scrambled Eggs.
And that's it!! I'll add pictures when I'm done with my exams. ^^v Enjoy!!
