Ingredients
  

For the Scrambled Eggs
  • 2 large Eggs Use fresh eggs for the best flavor and texture.
  • 1 tablespoon Chives Feel free to substitute with green onions.
  • 1 pinch Salt Enhances all the flavors in the dish.
For the Creaminess
  • 1/4 cup Ricotta Cheese Choosing whole milk ricotta gives richness; drain excess liquid for best results.
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter Provides richness when cooking eggs; olive oil works as a dairy-free option.
For the Base
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread This hearty bread adds great texture; swap for whole-grain or gluten-free if needed.

Equipment

  • Nonstick skillet
  • toaster
  • mixing bowl
  • spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, crack 2 large eggs and add a pinch of salt along with finely chopped chives. Whisk the mixture vigorously until combined and slightly frothy.
  2. Place a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter, melt completely.
  3. Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet and gently stir. Cook undisturbed for about 1 minute before continuing to stir every 15 seconds until slightly runny, about 2 minutes total.
  4. Remove the skillet from heat and gently fold in 1/4 cup of ricotta cheese, allowing some clumps to remain.
  5. Slice 2 pieces of sourdough bread and toast until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Place the toasted sourdough on plates and spoon the creamy egg and ricotta mixture generously over the toast. Serve immediately.
