Soft Scrambled Eggs With Smoked Salmon And Avocado Recipes

Steps:

• Mash avocado with a fork. Mix in lemon juice, salt and pepper. Spread the avocado mixture over each slice of toast. Mix 2 tablespoons chives, crème fraîche (if using), and eggs in a large bowl. Melt butter in a large heavy nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add egg mixture and season with salt and pepper. Cook, occasionally scraping bottom of skillet with a heatproof spatula to form large, soft curds, until just barely set, 3 to 4 minutes. Spoon eggs over avocado. Drape salmon slices over eggs, garnish with remaining 1 tablespoon chives, and season to taste with pepper.

Steps:

• Reserve 2 slices of salmon for garnish. Chop the remaining salmon into very small pieces.
• Whisk your eggs and cream together. Add 1/2 of your chopped chives and season eggs with salt and pepper. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Melt butter in the pan and add eggs. Scramble eggs with a wooden spoon. Do not cook eggs until dry. When eggs have come together but remain wet, stir in chopped salmon. Remove pan from the stove and place on a trivet. Garnish the eggs with remaining salmon and chives and serve right out of the warm pan.
• Note: If you are serving these eggs with the other recipes provided as a brunch, a platter of store bought fruit filled dainties will complete your elegant brunch. Allow 1 dainty per person but halve dainties so that guests may mix and match varieties.

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add the cream and whisk until the eggs look foamy and light. Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Melt the butter until it foams; then turn the heat down to low and slowly pour in the eggs. Using a heat-resistant rubber spatula, slowly stir the eggs from the outside of the pan to the center. Once the eggs begin to set, stirring slowly will create large, cloudlike curds. This process takes about 10 minutes. It sounds easy, but perfect scrambled eggs that are soft and custardlike with no brown color are the sign of a really good cook. Season the eggs with a few cranks of black pepper and good salt, like fleur de sel. I like serving these with a few slices of avocado and smoked salmon, maybe a little chopped fresh chives. Once you perfect these, you'll never order eggs at a diner again.

Steps:

• Halve, pit and scoop the avocado out into a shallow bowl. Mash with a fork until chunky. Season with salt and pepper.
• Toast the bread. Lightly rub each slice with the cut side of the garlic clove and then brush each slice with some oil.
• Divide and spread the mashed avocado evenly among the toasts. Lay a piece of smoked salmon over the avocado. Top with a pinch of flaky sea salt, a few grinds of pepper and some dill. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:

• Heat butter in 10-inch skillet over medium heat until hot and bubbly; cook and stir salmon 1 minute.
• Beat eggs, water and pepper; pour into skillet.
• Cook uncovered over low heat, stirring occasionally, until eggs are thickened throughout but still moist, 3 to 5 minutes; sprinkle with snipped dillweed.
• Serve eggs on toast; garnish with lemon slices and dill weed.
