This recipe for Scrambled Eggs is made with tender asparagus, melted leeks, chèvre, and fresh dill - is a simple, easy breakfast inspired by spring!
📝 Ingredients
- 1 medium leek – white and light green parts, thinly sliced, or half moons, rinsed, drained
- 1 cup chopped asparagus – do not use the woody ends (about ½ a bunch)
- 2 tablespoons oil or butter or combination
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons sour cream or plain yogurt
- salt and pepper to taste (¼ teaspoon of each)
- ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese, about 2 ounces
- ⅛ cup fresh chopped dill or tarragon
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1Cut and rinse the leeks. The water here, helps them not to burn.
- 2Prep the asparagus.
- 3In a small bowl, whisk eggs with sour cream, salt, and pepper.
- 4In a large nonstick pan, saute leeks in olive oil over medium-low heat until tender, 7-10 minutes. Add the asparagus and saute for a few minutes until tender-crisp. Seaon with salt and pepper. If the pan seems dry, add a little splash of water. Once tender, set these aside.
- 5Wipe out the pan, add more olive oil or butter, and heat over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and let them cook for 1-2 minutes. Then, using a rubber spatula, slide across the bottom of the pan, creating folds. Continue folding gently until cooked to your desired doneness.
- 6Fold in the crumbled goat cheese and aspargus/leek mix, letting the cheese melt.
- 7Turn off the heat and fold in the fresh herbs. Taste for salt before serving.
