Quantities above make four portions. Calorie count is per serving.

Method

  1. Sauté mushrooms and shallot in butter until golden, 4 minutes. Season and set aside.
  2. Whisk eggs with a splash of water, salt, and white pepper until just combined.
  3. Melt butter in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Pour in eggs.
  4. Gently push edges toward center, tilting pan to let raw egg flow to edges.
  5. When just set but still creamy on top, add mushrooms and Gruyère to one half. Fold and slide onto plate.
  6. Top with crème fraîche and chives.

Timing

Allow roughly 3 minutes of preparation and 9 minutes of cooking. Read the method through once before you start so nothing waits on a pan you could have had going already.
