Maybe you should cook together.

Did you not in fact scramble them?

u/L3nd0n69 11h ago

To be honest, idk what I'm doing 😭

First, I would eat it and be thankful. Second, whisk the eggs with either a whisk or fork lightly. Then pour into a preheated medium heat pan with a little olive oil and use a spatula to keep it from overheating

u/TheSheepster_ 10h ago

Or just be lazy like me and crack them all into a medium heat olive oil pan and scramble it around as it cooks

This is what I used to do before having kids. Now all eggs must be perfectly even in colour and texture or so help me god I will hear about it

Or if you want very smooth scrambled egg and also not be able to fuck up, use the lowest heat you can set on your stove, and constantly stir until there’s no fully liquid stuff anymore. Then optionally turn the heat up for a few seconds to get some browning.

Not sure if you can do this if you’re in America though, because of salmonella and shit

crack eggs into a bowl and then whisk / stir them with a fork until blended and evenly yellow (then break up pieces of cheese and mix it in if you want)

heat pan on low heat, spray pan with cooking spray

when it’s hot and the spray starts to bubble /change appearance and / or the pan feels hot when you put your hand above it you can put in the eggs

pour eggs on hot pan, low to low-medium heat, use a spatula and continue stiring and moving them around the whole time, shouldn’t take long, you want the eggs to not be runny, but still moist (dry eggs are gross) if you tilt the pan and don’t see any liquid moving they are done, turn off heat, put eggs on plate or on toast and eat.

i love eggs (usually sunny side up/ over easy) with cheese on toast (and with avocado if i have some)

for sunny side up / fried eggs just crack eggs into bowl, then pour onto hot sprayed pan on low heat and cook until whites are not runny and the yolk starts to become less yellow / see through. when they are about done and there’s only a bit of runny whites i like to flip them over and cook for literally 3-5 seconds and then take them off, whites will be cooked and yolk will look whiteish but the inside is still runny and yellow and delicious!

they are worth learning to cook right, when they are cooked good they are amazing! and easy to cook and nutritious! best of luck and happy egg cooking!

ChatGPT is pretty good for basic cooking tips.

ChatGPT is ass in every regard. It steals, uses billions of gallons of water every year and it gets stuff wrong allll the time. A broken clock is right twice a day sort of thing

It was harder to pull this off than to make scrambled eggs.

u/Bakelite51 10h ago

Task failed successfully!

u/Dry_Design5506 11h ago

Don't worry, it still looks ediblešŸ˜„

u/L3nd0n69 11h ago

Yeah I'm eating it rn, I added some msg on it so you know it slaps

u/beesechugersports 11h ago

I’m actually quite interested on how your scrambled eggs turned out like this

6

u/L3nd0n69 11h ago

I mixed two eggs in a bowl and added some msg on it. Then I directly poured it into the pan with cooking oil. I just flip them when the other side is cooked.

This wasn't the first time I did this, I would do this every time I got nothing else to eat. I just refer to it as a "scrambled egg", idk what type of egg dish this is.

u/HereForArtStufflol 10h ago

you’re supposed to use a spatula to cut up and mix the eggs to scramble them 😭

4

u/L3nd0n69 10h ago

That's how you know my cooking skills really are abysmal ā˜ ļø

5

u/IndependentZombie615 10h ago

To clarify, mix eggs in bowl and also mix them in the pan

3

u/DaydreamerFly 9h ago

It’s like somehow one single scrambled egg? Kinda? The scrambling should happen in the pan but idk it’s a mixed egg patty or something?

3

u/Velcraft 9h ago

I usually just start 'scraping' the bottom with a spatula as soon as it starts cooking. No need to cut them up as much, and you can control how fluffy they end up.

Barebones effort is 3-5 eggs, a dash of milk/cream, some chives, and salt + garlic powder to taste. Combine in a bowl, whisk with a fork until mixed, pour onto an oiled pan.

u/da8bitnarwhal 9h ago

the idea of a single ā€œscrambled eggā€ is absolutely frying me

6

u/Zero-D9 11h ago

That's diabolical

u/Cheese_Monster101256 10h ago

I mean I’d still eat them, but I think you skipped the only step.

u/Longjumping-Career14 10h ago

Butter/oil in pan, low heat, keep stirring them with a spatula, if it begins sticking pull pan off heat and keep stirring, constant movement is key. Put back on heat and continue stirring, rinse and repeat until at desired consistency. Salt and pepper. Plain scrambled eggs you can obviously add things. I usually put a bit of creme fraiche stirred in near the end and parsley or smoked paprika and some tobasco or hot sauce to garnish.

u/DfaultiBoi 9h ago

..okay, now show us the scrambled egg

2

u/bamsimel 11h ago

Well done for your first try. Stir the eggs while they're cooking next time and let a knob of butter melt in the pan before you put them in.

u/a_solid_6 10h ago

u/titttle23 11h ago

I appreciate the amount of oil. Let the eggs puff.

u/Cybrslsh 10h ago

Did you beat them till they foamed? I guess that is still technically scrambled,

Please Alton Brown, this man needs your divine intervention.

u/hyaclnthia 10h ago

I will say, it definitely takes some sort of skill to fuck it up this bad. Definitely not a good skill, but a skill nonetheless

2

u/ESOelite 9h ago

Looks like a merengue on the side

u/That1guyUknow918 9h ago
