Scrambled eggs

Look, the easiest, least fuss way to do it is as so:

1. Melt a little butter or marg in a pan
2. Add a little milk, but just a touch
3. Crack in one or two or three eggs
4. Stir and let cook for a couple of minutes.
5. Enjoy on toast with ketchup :)

Easy, simple, quick and tasty, plus it is far less washing up

Ok here is the correct way for all you Noobs! (and yes I used to be a chef) if you can't cook scrambled eggs then god help you!

Now melt a nob of butter in a medium-sized saucepan over a very gentle heat. While melting beat however many egg's in a bowl (I do 2 large eggs per person) seasoning with a little salt and black pepper. Once the butter stars to foam up add the eggs and increase heat. Stir continuoulsy until they are cooked to your liking (I like them quite moist not too dry).

For extra l33t'ness add 1tbsp of single cream when they are just about cooked.

AND.. if you use a microwave you need to be shot! It turns them to rubber!

You can't have been much of a chef if you can't cook scrambled eggs properly in a microwave.

No that's just noobish methods my man. Just like adding milk to make an omelette

Reading this thread has made me make my favourite veriation on scrambled eggs. It includes Pancetta, baby chestnut mushrooms, onion and smoked cheddar along with rosemary and a decent knob of butter. Lovely!

I think people just need to learn how to use them, everyone seems to be cooking them for way to long and not letting any residual heat finish off the cooking.

Either that or have they underpowered microwaves.

It seems that everyone has their own ideas on the BEST way to do this.

I would add to the above - stir continuously and remove from hob when the liquid is starting to thicken. Then continue to stir off the hob - the eggs will cook in their own heat which always ensure they don't get too hard or rubbery :)
