. . . after lazy weekends, tuesday mornings are often a whirlwind of flying clothes and pretty pumps, {and this morning}, finally settling on a bandaged skirt and white silk blouse, with only enough time for a very quick breakfast . . . 

Ingredients

Furikake Scrambled Eggs

4 eggs

a dash of milk

a pinch of pepper

a pinch of furikake (japanese seaweed seasoning)

1 tablespoon of olive oil

Method

1. Crack the eggs into a medium mixing bowl. 

2. Add milk, pepper and salt. Measure the milk carefully, as cooked egg will only hold a certain amount of liquid. Use a fork to whisk the egg mixture lightly until the ingredients are combined and the white and egg yolk is evenly mixed. 

3. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat for 1 minute. Swirl the pan to lightly coat its entire base with the oil.

4. Add the egg mixture to the frying pan and cook over medium heat for 30 seconds. Use a flat-topped wooden spoon to gently push the egg mixture, scraping the top of the spoon along the base of the pan, from one side of the pan to the other in 4 different directions. Soft folds of cooked egg will begin to develop.

5. Cook for 2 minutes or until about three-quarters of the mixture is cooked and one-quarter is still moist.

6. Spoon the eggs onto a plate, sprinkle furikake and serve immediately.
