Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons full fat, ricotta cheese
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• black pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon minced chives

---

Instructions

1. Crack the eggs into a small-medium sized bowl. Use an immersion blender to pulse the eggs for about 15-20 seconds, util they are fully homogenized and look light and airy.
2. Melt the butter in a small pan over medium-low heat. Pour in the eggs and use a spatula to gently move the eggs around, lifting and folding to slowly form large curds. When the eggs are almost set, add in the ricotta, salt and pepper, and gently fold to combine.
3. Remove the eggs from the pan and place on a plate. Sprinkle with chopped chives and serve immediately with buttered toast.

Notes

• This recipe makes enough for just one person! Be sure to double, triple, or quadruple it, but know it will take the eggs a bit longer to cook.
