Growing up, my mom made this, just using calf brains. Thanks to mad cow disease, beef products such as this, are no longer available in the USA. But pork brains are. So I made this using pork brains. They have a slightly stronger flavor, but not too bad. You can scale this up by doubling or whatever for the amount of servings you require. This is a largish single serving, so if you have others things to go along with this, this could be 2 servings.

Ingredients

10 mins

1 serving

8 oz(half a pound) pork brains (I used frozen, thawed them first)
1/2onion, small
2 clovesgarlic
1 1/2 tablespoonsbutter or margarine
3large eggs
1/2 teaspoonbaking powder
1 tablespoonmilk
1/4 teaspoonsalt
1/4 teaspoonground black pepper
1green onion for garnish (optional)

Cooking Instructions

10 mins

1

Rinse fresh brains in water to remove blood.
2

Chop brains into a size you like. I prefer about 1/2 inch pieces.
3

Add butter to a skillet on medium heat.
4

Chop onion, a smaller dice I think is better.
5

Smash and dice garlic cloves.
6

Add onions and garlic to skillet. Stir and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes.
7

Add chopped brains. Stir.
8

Take your eggs, I break them into a coffee mug to stir, but a bowl works if you have more.
9

Add baking powder to eggs, salt and pepper and milk, stir to scramble.
10

When the brains are cooked to your liking, add the eggs, you need to stir constantly now
11

Cook until eggs are cooked, but still moist. Serve.

This was delicious. The only thing I didn’t do was add milk or the baking powder.

My wife is disabled, she has M.S. And she finds it hard to cook from her wheelchair. I like a variety of foods, but hate tomatoes, so you don't see too many of my recipes with tomatoes on them. Also both of us have type II diabetes, so high carb and sweet is usually not on the menu either. We have one married daughter, and one that now lives in the Seattle area. We live in Texas, USA with our two dogs.Sorry I have not posted in awhile. Been taking chemo and radiation. and it has taken some out of me. Doctor says it seems to be working, so there is that.

Key is to whisk 90% of the time and to makse sure the pot doesn't get to hot to make really airy and creamy (without cream!) scrambled eggs. Definitely not as fast as scrambling eggs the traditional way, but truly decadent results!

These eggs are so good :) they are easy to make, and they taste so good. You can use less salt and it brings out the flavor of the parsley, eggs, thyme & cheese! It's very good! :-)

I always loved sandwiches but I was a little tired of the classical ones so I wanted to try something more flavoured and good to the smell.

I wanted to be able to easily make scrambled eggs like the ones you get for breakfast at hotels.If you slowly cook the eggs over low heat, you'll get really thick and delicious scrambled eggs. For 2 servings. Recipe by Yukijirushi

This is a wonderful way to make scrambled eggs that incorporates the Chinese cuisine method of eggs gradually being dropped in a hot liquid. It was published by Kenji López-Alt in The New York Times. It makes creamy, sumptuous scrambled eggs. Whenever I have heavy cream in the fridge, this is the way I make eggs.#breakfast #American

I love having this as a simple dinner for one on the evenings my hubby's at work. I don't have to worry about a big "dinner production" and it's just enough to fill me up without weighing me down. Lol.
