Ingredients
Scale
For the Scrambled Eggs:
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Grated Potato:
- 1 medium russet potato, peeled and grated
- 2 tablespoons butter or oil, divided
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Grated Potato: Peel and grate the potato, then remove excess moisture by squeezing with a clean kitchen towel. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter or oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the grated potato, spread it evenly, and cook until golden and crispy, about 5–7 minutes.
- Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well blended.
- Scramble the Eggs: Push the crispy potatoes aside in the skillet or set them aside. Add the remaining butter, pour in the egg mixture, let it sit briefly, then gently scramble with a spatula. Fold in the crispy potatoes and chives as the eggs set. Cook until eggs are fully set.
- Serve: Once cooked, serve the scrambled eggs with grated potato and chives warm.
Notes
- You can use green onions instead of chives or add shredded cheese for extra flavor.
- This dish pairs well with toast or fresh fruit for a complete breakfast.
