Ingredients

• Eggs - 4 large
• Heavy cream - 30 ml
• Unsalted butter - 30 g
• Fresh truffle (or truffle oil) - 10 g (or 1 tsp)
• Parmesan cheese, grated - 20 g
• Salt - to taste
• Black pepper - to taste
• Fresh chives, chopped - 1 tbsp

Steps

1. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
2. In a non-stick skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium-low heat, ensuring it does not brown.
3. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit for a few seconds until it begins to set around the edges.
4. Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, pushing them from the edges to the center, and continue until they start to form soft curds.
5. Remove the skillet from the heat when the eggs are still slightly runny, as they will continue to cook from residual heat.
6. Finely slice the fresh truffle or drizzle with truffle oil and fold it into the scrambled eggs.
7. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and mix gently until just combined.
8. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped chives.
