Ingredients
  

For the Toast
  • 3 large Eggs Provides protein and richness; be sure to scramble them softly.
  • 2 tablespoons Chives Adds freshness; substitute with green onions if desired.
  • 1 pinch Coarse Salt Enhances flavors; use sea salt or kosher salt.
  • 1 tablespoon Unsalted Butter Essential for cooking eggs; olive oil can be used as a dairy-free option.
  • 1 cup Whole Milk Ricotta Offers creamy indulgence; use fresh ricotta and drain excess liquid.
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread The perfect base for the toast.

Equipment

  • non-stick skillet
  • Whisk
  • spatula
  • toaster

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, crack open the eggs and add in chopped chives and coarse salt. Whisk until well combined.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat and add unsalted butter. Melt gently, coating the pan without browning the butter.
  3. Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet and stir continuously for about 2 minutes until mostly set but slightly runny.
  4. Remove the skillet from heat and gently fold in the ricotta, leaving some clumps for texture.
  5. Toast slices of sourdough bread until golden and crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
  6. Spread the egg and ricotta mixture generously over the toasted sourdough slices.
  7. Serve immediately, garnished with extra chives or a dash of coarse salt.
