Instructions

Side Dish

  • Start by heating a pan over medium-high heat (9 out of 14 on my stove).
  • Add olive oil to it.
  • Remove the insides from your mushrooms and place them on the pan with the tops facing down. Season with salt and a bit of pepper.
  • Add the tomatoes to the pan and keep them on the vine.
  • Turn the heat down to medium-low (5 out of 14 on my stove) and let it cook until the eggs are ready.
  • Cut 1 slice of sourdough bread, preferably a thick slice. Put it in/on a toaster.
  •  
  • Crack 3 eggs directly into a saucepan.
  • Add the butter directly into the saucepan afterward.
  • Turn your stove to fairly high heat - I set mine to 10 out of 14 on my stove.
  • Place the saucepan on the stove and get a spatula.
  • Stir well in the saucepan, so the eggs slowly start to break down.
  • You should think of it as if you're making risotto, so you need to keep stirring. The advantage of using a spatula is that you can get right into the corners, ensuring nothing cooks unevenly.
  • As soon as the eggs start to come together slightly, remove them from the heat and stir for a while without heat. You should do this a few times, alternating between having them on and off the heat.
  • After a couple of minutes, the saucepan will be warm enough that you don't need to put it back on the heat.
  • When it's nearly at the consistency you want, add crème fraîche to the saucepan; it lowers the eggs' temperature and ensures they don't overcook.
  • Season with flaky salt and pepper from the grinder.
  • Add some finely chopped chives to the saucepan, stir, and your scrambled eggs are ready.
  •  
  • Place your toasted bread at the bottom of the plate and drizzle with a little olive oil.
  • Add your mushrooms and tomatoes (keep them on the vine) on the side.
  • Top your toast with the scrambled eggs and serve immediately.
