Ingredients
Scale
Eggs
- 2 large eggs
Butter
- 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
Seasoning
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- Pepper to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the bowl: Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a microwave-safe bowl or mug by microwaving it for 15-20 seconds. Once melted, swirl the butter around to coat the entire inside of the dish evenly.
- Whisk the eggs: Crack the eggs into the buttered bowl. Add the salt and whisk thoroughly with a fork until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Cook in intervals: Microwave the eggs on high for 30 seconds. Remove the dish, stir the eggs with a fork, and return to the microwave. Continue cooking in 15-20 second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist.
- Finish and serve: Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter to the eggs and gently stir to incorporate it. Sprinkle with pepper to taste, if desired. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Stirring the eggs every 15-20 seconds prevents overcooking and ensures creamy texture.
- You can adjust the seasoning by adding herbs or cheese if desired.
- Use a microwave-safe container to avoid damage or safety hazards.
- Microwave wattage may vary; adjust the cooking time accordingly.
