Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- Optional: crunched Fritos for topping
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Skillet: Begin by heating the butter in a small skillet over medium heat until it’s melted and slightly bubbling.
-
Cook the Eggs: Crack the eggs directly into the skillet. Allow them to cook undisturbed until the edges start to set and turn solid. This should take about 2 minutes.
-
Add Cream and Milk: Pour the heavy cream and milk evenly over the eggs. This will create a creamy texture and prevent the eggs from drying out.
-
Cover and Cook: Place a lid over the skillet to trap the steam and cook the eggs to your desired doneness. This usually takes about 3 to 5 minutes. For runny yolks, check them frequently to avoid overcooking.
-
Season and Serve: Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. For an extra touch, you can sprinkle crunched Fritos on top, adding a delightful crunch to each bite.
-
Enjoy Your Breakfast: Serve immediately and enjoy this simple yet satisfying breakfast that brings a touch of South American flair to your morning routine.
