This creamy garlic butter egg dish is rich, comforting, and full of flavor in every bite. Soft pieces of cooked eggs are soaked in a silky garlic sauce made with butter, milk, and a touch of spice. It comes together quickly and tastes.
Ingredients
4eggs
2cubesbutter
1cupmilk
½ tablespoon chili flakes
½ tablespoon oregano
¼ tablespoon black pepper powder
1tablespooncornflour
6to 7 garlic cloves
cilantro (coriander leaves) (finely chopped)
salt to taste
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a large bowl, season with salt and black pepper, and whisk well until light and slightly fluffy.
Heat a frying pan over low heat and add one cube of butter. Once melted, pour in the beaten eggs and let them cook gently for about a minute. Slowly fold and spread the eggs so they cook evenly without browning.
When the bottom is set, cut the eggs into about 1-inch pieces and carefully flip them. Cook for another 1 to 2 minutes on low heat until just cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside.
In a clean pan, melt another cube of butter over low heat. Add the chopped garlic and saute gently for about 2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
Sprinkle in the cornflour and stir well so it blends smoothly into the butter without lumps.
Slowly pour in the milk while stirring and cook until the sauce thickens into a creamy consistency. Season with salt, chili flakes, and oregano, mixing well.
Add the cooked egg pieces to the sauce and gently toss to coat. Let everything warm together on low heat for about 3 minutes.
Finish by stirring in the chopped cilantro, then turn off the heat and serve warm.
Notes
Cook the eggs on low heat so they stay soft and do not turn rubbery.
Saute the garlic slowly to bring out its aroma without burning it.
Add chili flakes at the end if you prefer a stronger spicy kick.
