HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cardamom, rosewater, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.

02

Melt the unsalted butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.

03

Pour the egg mixture into the heated skillet.

04

Allow the eggs to set slightly for about 30 seconds without stirring.

05

Gently push the cooked egg from the edges towards the center with a spatula, tilting the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue this process for 3-5 minutes, or until the eggs are softly set but still moist.

06

Remove the skillet from the heat immediately to prevent overcooking.

07

Divide the scrambled eggs between two plates and garnish with chopped pistachios before serving.

Chef's Tips

For extra fluffiness, add a pinch of baking powder to the egg mixture. Serve immediately for the best texture. You can adjust the amount of rosewater and cardamom to your personal preference.

Easy Substitutions

If you don't have rosewater, a tiny pinch of saffron threads steeped in a tablespoon of warm milk can offer a similar aromatic quality. Almond extract can also be used as a substitute for rosewater, but use sparingly (1/4 teaspoon). For a dairy-free version, use plant-based milk and oil instead of butter.

Storage & Reheating

These scrambled eggs are best enjoyed fresh. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day, but the texture may change upon reheating. Reheat gently in a microwave or on the stovetop over low heat.
