The Perfect Brunch Treat

Scrambled egg, smoked salmon on a toasted English muffin

This recipe is a great breakfast or brunch dish for any occasion, maybe to impress a loved one or a Christmas treat or just something different & it is quick and easy to prepare.

Smoked salmon & chive 

• Lay the smoked salmon on a chopping board, with a sharp knife slice into thin strips (julienne)
• With the chives again lay on to a chopping board and cut very thinly
• Both cutting exercises will need a large knife. Do not attempt cutting with a small blunt knife. You will find better control with a large knife.

Scrambled Egg

• Crack eggs into a bowl season with cracked black pepper & sea salt.
• Whisk egg till they are fully combined.
• Add 10g of butter to a non-stick pan, gentle melt the butter till it starts to bubble then add your egg mix.
• On gentle heat stir the bottom of the pan in a figure of eight with a wooden spoon so that the egg does not catch.
• Once the egg mix starts to cook & thicken add the cream, stir in and cook till cream is incorporated then take off the heat.

Plating up

• Slice in half and toast the English muffin to your desired browning.
• Spread 20g of butter & add to a plate.
• Place scrambled egg on to the English muffin then add smoked salmon, for garnish sprinkle chives and a pinch of crack black pepper.
• Alternatively mix the smoked salmon and chive to the scrambled egg and place on to the English muffin.
• This goes down with a nice glass of fizzy wine or if you feel extravagant champagne enjoy!
