  • salt and pepper for taste

  • 1 tablespoon of butter or duck/goose fat

  • Garnish with fresh chopped parsley

Instructions:

  1. Melt butter in the frying pan and add chopped shallot and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for 5 minutes on medium heat.

  2. Break eggs in the glass bowl, add fresh cream, season and beat with fork or whisk

  3. Pour egg mixture into the frying pan and stir with wooden spoon until lightly scrambled.

  4. To ensure scrambled eggs are soft and creamy, they should be lightly under done not over done.
