HOW TO MAKE THE BEST SCRAMBLED EGGS

Step 1: In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a fork and seasoned with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Heat the margarine in a non-stick pan. When the margarine starts to melt, pour in the eggs, and let them cook for a few seconds without stirring. Pull a rubber spatula across the bottom of the pan to form large, soft curds of scrambled eggs.

Step 3: Gently mix the eggs with a rubber spatula or with a wooden spoon. Continue cooking over medium-low heat, mixing the eggs every few seconds. Do not overcook to much the eggs to make them creamier and moist.

Step 4: Turn off the heat, pour the scrambled eggs over a toasted bread slice and serve.
