Ingredients:

4 large eggs

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Fresh cracked pepper, to taste

½ tablespoon butter

2 tablespoons crème fraîche

Sea salt, to taste

1 teaspoon chives, chopped

Directions:

Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the garlic powder and cracked pepper and whisk just until smooth and set aside. Warm a heavy-based skillet on low heat, add the butter and move around until melted. Pour in the egg mixture. By using a spatula, stir the eggs continuously until they begin to curdle. This process will take about 4-5 minutes and the eggs should appear soft and quite lumpy. Once the eggs begin to curdle stir in the crème fraîche and season with sea salt to taste. Plate and garnish with chives.
