Cacio e pepe scrambled eggs
A quick recipe to prepare, which tastes like a good pasta dish. Care should be taken to keep the eggs slightly runny.
For 3 or 4 people. Preparation: 10 minutes. Cooking: 5 minutes.
Ingredients :
- 8 organic eggs
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 100 g grated parmesan
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- flower of salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Beat the eggs with a whisk, add the salt and half the parmesan. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet. Place your hand over the pan to check the temperature. Once the oil is moderately hot but not smoking, test the heat of the pan: pour in a spoonful of beaten eggs. Ideally, the egg should sizzle gently and can be easily swirled around with a spatula. If it doesn’t sizzle, let the pan heat up for another 1 or 2 minutes. If the egg cooks too quickly, remove the pan from the heat and, if it does not stick, add the remaining eggs to the pan.
Swirl the eggs in a constant motion with a spatula in the same direction so they don’t stick together. The eggs will cook fairly quickly, make sure the plates are nearby. Take the eggs out of the pan before they are completely set, because once removed, they will continue to cook.
Divide the eggs among the plates. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan, add fleur de sel and freshly ground pepper.
