SCRAMBLED EGGS AND CAPSICUM
A very easy dish to make. Good to have for a brunch or lunch. We used to make this when we were away camping, as it is very easy to put together and tasty.

Steps:
- Barbeque the capsicums (or oven bake them)until the skin is blistering away from the flesh - the capsicum flesh needs to be still be firm enough to dice into pieces. Remove from heat, cool and peel the skin from the flesh. Discard the skin and dice up the flesh.
- Beat together the eggs.
- Chop the tomatoes into small pieces.
- Pan fry in a large frypan the chopped onion.
- Add all remaining ingredients, eggs, capsicum, tomato, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
- Scramble together as if you were doing scrambled eggs.
- Remove from heat and serve with toasted bread or bread rolls.

Steps:
- Whisk the eggs: Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 pinch of kosher salt, 1 grind of black pepper and 3 tablespoons whole milk together until light and foamy.
- TIP: Odds are you're going to be serving these on a plate. If so, I strongly suggest you park an ovensafe one in a low oven or in hot water while you're cooking. Cold plates suck the heat right out of food.
- Add to the pan: Add 1 tablespoon unsalted butter to a 10-to-12-inch nonstick skillet and put it over high heat. When the butter bubbles (after about a minute), pour the eggs straight into the middle of the pan, which will force the butter to the edges, where it's needed.
- Scramble the eggs: Stir slowly with a rubber or silicone spatula. As soon as curds (big soft lumps) of eggs begin to form, drop the heat to low and shift from stirring to folding the curds over on themselves while gently shaking the pan with the other hand.
- Let rest: As soon as no more liquidous egg is running around the pan, kill the heat and gently transfer the scramble to the warmed plate. Let the eggs rest for 1 minute to finish cooking before serving.
SCRAMBLED PEPPERS AND EGGS
As in many Mark Bittman recipes, the idea here is more vegetables -- in this case, peppers -- than protein. It works because except for the jalapeño, none of the peppers is hot.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH PEPPERS
This dish, a classic piperade from southwestern France, is a great way to use those vitamin-rich peppers still abundant in farmers' markets. You can mix and match peppers here. Just be sure to cook them for a long time so that their juices infuse the eggs.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or heavy casserole over medium heat. Add the peppers. Cook, stirring often, for five minutes. Add the garlic and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the garlic smells fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomatoes, thyme, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, and simmer, stirring from time to time, until the tomatoes have cooked down somewhat, about 10 minutes. Cover, and reduce the heat. Simmer over low heat for another 15 to 20 minutes, stirring from time to time, until the mixture is thick and fragrant.
- Beat the eggs in a medium bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper. Turn the heat to medium, and stir in the eggs. Cook, stirring every few seconds, until the eggs are scrambled. Remove from the heat and serve.

SILKY SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH PANCETTA, PEPPER AND PECORINO
Keeping the heat low and steady is the key to these soft scrambled eggs. Pancetta adds a brawny bite, but you can leave it out to make the dish vegetarian. Do add lots of freshly ground black pepper, though: It's what gives the custardy eggs a spicy snap.

Steps:
- Using a nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron pan, heat the pancetta over medium. Let cook, shaking the pan, until the fat renders out and the pancetta browns all over, 3 to 10 minutes, depending on how large the cubes are.
- If the pan looks oily, pour (or spoon) off any excess grease. Add butter to the pan and let melt. Reduce heat to low.
- Beat the eggs and salt in a medium bowl until well mixed but not frothy. Pour into the skillet with the pancetta and, using a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon, scramble the eggs until they are just set, 2 to 4 minutes. Take care that the eggs don't brown, lowering the heat further if necessary.
- Divide the eggs onto two plates and shower pepper generously over the top. Sprinkle with cheese and serve at once.
SCRAMBLED EGGS
Some like their scrambled eggs moist and some like them rather dry. The longer they cook, the drier they become. Either way, use low heat so the texture remains soft and creamy.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a heavy skillet or nonstick pan. Combine the eggs, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons water in a bowl. Briskly whisk, pour into the skillet, and turn the heat very low. Gently stir the egg mixture, lifting it up and over from the bottom as it thickens. Continue to stir until the desired texture is achieved. They thicken and dry out very quickly toward the end, so if you like them soft and moist, remove them from the heat a little before they reach the desired texture; they will continue to cook after being removed from the pan.
- Scrambled Eggs with Ham.
- Add 1/2 cup finely chopped cooked ham to the egg mixture.
- Scrambled Eggs with Cream Cheese.
- Cut 4 ounces cream cheese into small cubes and add to the eggs after they begin to thicken in the skillet.
- Scrambled Eggs with Chives.
- Add 1 tablespoon chopped chives and 1 tablespoon chopped parsley to the egg mixture, and substitute 2 tablespoons cream for the water.
- Scrambled Eggs with Lox.
- Fry 1/2 onion, sliced, and 2 slices lox in the butter before adding the eggs, and eliminate the salt from the mixture.
- Scrambled Eggs with Chicken Livers.
- Fry two chicken livers, diced, in the butter before adding the egg mixture.
- Scrambled Eggs with Asparagus.
- Add 2/3 cup crisp-cooked asparagus, in 2-inch pieces, to the eggs just after they begin to thicken in the skillet.
- Scrambled Eggs with Peppers and Onions.
- Fry 1/2 red pepper, diced, and 1/4 onion, chopped, in the butter for about 5 minutes before adding the egg mixture.
- Scrambled Eggs with Mushrooms.
- Melt the butter in a heavy skillet. Sauté 1 1/2 cups sliced mushrooms with 4 tablespoons finely chopped onion over medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes. Lower the heat before adding the egg mixture.
- Cooking Temperature
- No matter what the technique, it is essential to use low, gentle heat when cooking eggs: egg protein beings to thicken at only 144°F, and toughens rapidly. The only exception is omelets; there the bottom is cooked quickly over medium-high heat, but the surface remains slightly runny, making for a soft interior when folded. Serve cooked eggs on warm, not sizzling hot, plates or they will continue to cook after they are removed from the pan.
- Food Safety and Eggs
- There is an ever-growing concern about the threat of salmonella, bacteria that contaminate eggs, poultry, and meat. Because we often eat eggs lightly cooked and even raw (in sauces like mayonnaise, for instance), they pose a greater threat. In trying to assess the seriousness of the problem, I have consulted government agencies - the Food and Drug Administration, the Agricultural Department, and the Centers for Disease Control - and many other food safety experts. The findings are frustrating because there seems to be no collective information as to how many eggs are infected, and how many people have been stricken with salmonella in this country, so there is no way of knowing the degree of risk one is taking when eating raw or lightly cooked eggs, which are used in many recipes. Government officials recommend that immuno-compromised patients, the very young and the elderly, all of whom are the most severely affected when stricken, should not eat raw or lightly cooked eggs. Until the problem has been licked, the rest of us are consuming eggs that have not been cooked to 165° at our own risk. Incidentally, eggs in cakes, cookies, and breads have been sufficiently cooked to be safe.
SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH PEPPERS, TOMATOES AND POTATOES
I've always been partial to creamy, slow-cooked scrambled eggs, but for this week's dishes I found that I preferred larger curds, cooked at medium heat rather than very low heat. If you prefer a creamier curd, just reduce the heat before you add the beaten eggs to the pan, and stir the mixture slowly until the eggs are set. These Tunisian-inspired eggs make a satisfying one-dish meal. The eggs are spiced with cayenne or harissa, ground caraway and coriander.

Steps:
- Steam the potatoes in a steamer placed over one inch of boiling water for 10 minutes or until tender. Remove from the heat, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy nonstick skillet. Add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about three minutes. Add the peppers. Cook, stirring, until the peppers begin to soften, about five minutes. Stir in the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, ground caraway and coriander seeds, and cayenne or harissa. Stir together. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook, stirring often for 20 to 30 minutes, until the mixture is cooked down and the peppers are very tender. Stir in the potatoes, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Beat the eggs in a bowl and season with salt to taste. Stir into the vegetables. Cook until the eggs are scrambled, stirring every few seconds to create large curds. Remove from the heat, and serve.

- Crack the eggs into a small bowl and whisk together until very well combined. Add salt and pepper. (Start with about 1/4 teaspoon salt.)
- Put a medium-sized nonstick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Swirl the butter around until melted completely, then reduce the heat to medium low. Add the eggs. Use a spatula to stir the eggs around the pan. It may take a few minutes before the eggs start to form curds. Use the spatula to push and fold the eggs over on themselves, being sure to push the liquidy parts of the egg to make contact with the skillet. Stir frequently. Once the eggs are mainly set but still wet, remove the pan from the heat. Then continue to stir until they are done to your liking*. Serve immediately.
