Preparation Time: 8 minutes
Cooking Time: 8 minutes
Total Time: 8 minutes
Servings: 1
Ingredients:
- 3 large eggs 🥚
- 1 cup sliced bamboo in chili oil 🌶️ (for a burst of spicy flavor)
- 2 tablespoons sambal oelek 🌶️ (or more if you prefer extra heat)
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce 🌊 (for a rich, umami kick)
- 1/2 cup milk 🥛 (to create a creamy texture)
- 1 1/2 cups medium cheddar cheese, shredded 🧀 (for a melty, savory finish)
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Skillet: Begin by lightly spraying a medium skillet with cooking oil spray. Set the skillet over low-medium heat and allow it to warm up gently. This ensures that your eggs cook evenly without sticking to the pan.
-
Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, crack open the three eggs and beat them together until the yolks and whites are fully combined. Add in the sliced bamboo in chili oil, sambal oelek, fish sauce, and milk. Whisk the mixture well until everything is thoroughly blended. This combination will give your scrambled eggs a unique and vibrant flavor profile.
-
Cook the Eggs: Pour the prepared egg mixture into the preheated skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for a moment, then begin gently stirring with a spatula. Continuously cook and turn the eggs, allowing them to set while still remaining creamy.
-
Incorporate the Cheese: Once the eggs are about halfway cooked and still slightly runny, add the shredded cheddar cheese to the skillet. Chop the cheese into smaller pieces with your spatula to help it melt more quickly and evenly. Continue to stir and fold the mixture until the cheese is fully melted and the eggs are cooked to your liking. For best results, aim for soft, creamy eggs without letting them become dry or rubbery.
-
Serve Immediately: Once the eggs reach your desired consistency, transfer them to a plate and serve right away. For those who enjoy a bit of extra spice, sprinkle a generous amount of Tabasco or your favorite hot sauce on top before serving.
