Savory Brazilian Cornmeal and Cheese Scramble
Start your day with a taste of Brazil! This delightful scramble brings together light, fluffy eggs with the distinct texture of cornmeal and the rich creaminess of melted cheese. It's a satisfying and flavorful breakfast that's surprisingly quick to prepare, offering a hearty and unique twist to your morning routine.
Let's cook.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, cornmeal, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.
Pour the egg mixture into the hot skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds until the edges begin to set.
Gently push the cooked edges towards the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue this process for 2-3 minutes, or until the eggs are mostly set but still slightly moist.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese over the eggs. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove from heat and divide the scramble between two plates. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.
