Fluffy Scrambled Eggs
Scrambled eggs are the amongst the easiest foods to prepare. If you've been wondering how do you make scrambled eggs fluffy, the secret lies in whisking them the right way, and getting plenty of air into them. When you begin to whisk, you'll see air bubble is the eggs, which are what will make the cooked egg spongy. Beat the egg for about 2 minutes, till they are frothy and evenly colored. Also, when you whisk the eggs, you want to do it in a tilted wheel motion, where you lift the egg. You can use a fork, whisk or electric blender to whisk an egg. Now that you know the secret of how to make scrambled eggs fluffy, ensure that you implement this technique in all the recipes.

Fluffy Scrambled Eggs Recipe

Ingredients
  • 6 tsp low-fat milk
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp butter for frying
  • 3 dashes of salt
Method
Slowly warm a large non-stick frying pan (12'' works well) on low heat. Simultaneously, break the eggs into a large bowl, and add to them the milk and salt. Whisk them for about 2 minutes if a folk/whisk is being used, otherwise 20 to 25 seconds of blending with an electric mixer will suffice. Once the foam settles a little, drop a blob of butter into the pan. As it melts and spreads, pour the egg into the pan. Tilt it so that it spreads all over the pan. Once you can detect the base of the egg setting, use a flat wooden spoon or spatula to push the cooked portions to the sides of the pan. As more and more of the egg gets cooked, flip bits of it so that it gets evenly cooked. Transfer the eggs to a serving plate after they are cooked but before they get dry. Sprinkle with salt and pepper if required. Read more on breakfast egg recipes.

Note: You can use Soy milk instead of regular milk in the recipe.
