Description

Indulge in the perfect savory breakfast with these Scrambled Eggs with Grated Potato and Chives. Creamy scrambled eggs paired with crispy grated potatoes and fresh chives make for a delicious and satisfying morning meal.


Ingredients

For the Grated Potatoes:

  • 1 medium russet potato (peeled and grated)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

For the Scrambled Eggs:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons milk (optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Grated Potatoes: Peel and grate the potato, then rinse and squeeze out excess water using a kitchen towel. Melt butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add grated potato, spreading it evenly, and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden and crispy.
  2. Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and chopped chives. Pour egg mixture over the crispy potatoes in the skillet.
  3. Cook the Scrambled Eggs: Cook, gently stirring, until eggs are softly set but still creamy, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Serve: Serve immediately garnished with additional fresh chives if desired.

Notes

  • Use Yukon Gold potatoes for a creamier texture.
  • Add shredded cheese for extra flavor if desired.
