Ingredients:
- 6 egg yolks
- 6 egg whites
- 50 grams unsalted butter (divided)
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 150 grams cheddar cheese, grated
- Chopped parsley to taste
- A few drops of ketchup
Instructions:
- Prepare the Egg Yolks:
- Place six egg yolks in the center of a skillet.
- Cover the yolks with a glass bowl, securing them in the center of the skillet.
- Grease the Skillet:
- Spread 40 grams of unsalted butter around the skillet to grease it well. Ensure the butter is evenly distributed to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the Egg Whites:
- In a separate bowl, beat the six egg whites until they become foamy. This helps to incorporate air, making the final dish light and fluffy.
- Add chopped parsley to taste, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of salt to the foamy egg whites.
- Mix in 150 grams of grated cheddar cheese and a few drops of ketchup to the egg whites. The cheddar cheese adds a rich flavor, while the ketchup adds a slight tanginess.
- Combine Ingredients in the Skillet:
- Pour the foamy egg white mixture into the skillet, surrounding the glass bowl with the yolks.
- Hold the glass bowl securely in the center to keep the yolks in place while you spread the egg white mixture evenly around it.
- Cook the Eggs:
- Spread an additional 10 grams of unsalted butter around the edges of the skillet. This ensures that the edges cook evenly and adds extra flavor.
- Carefully remove the glass bowl, allowing the yolks to blend slightly with the whites.
- Mix and Cook Further:
- Gently mix all the ingredients together in the skillet, ensuring the yolks are well distributed throughout the egg white mixture.
- Continue cooking over medium heat until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted, forming a cohesive and flavorful dish.
- Serve:
- Once the eggs are cooked to your desired consistency, remove the skillet from the heat.
- Serve the egg dish hot, garnished with additional chopped parsley if desired.
