Scrambled Eggs with Smoked Salmon

Scrambled eggs with smoked salmon is so easy to make and it is one of my favorite christmas breakfast recipes. 

Step by step instructions to make the most delicious scrambled egg.

You will need eggs, smoked salmon slices, toast and lemon wedges.

Scrambled eggs take a minute or so to cook to perfection, so have your smoked salmon on a plate with the lemon wedge and the toast ready to be buttered prior to starting cooking the egg mixture.


Use 1 egg or 2 per person, depending on how hungry people will be and if you're serving anything else with the celebration breakfast.

Season with salt and pepper, add a splash of water - about 1 tablespoon per egg and beat with a fork until frothy - see the photo here.

Beating eggs

This is a good time to prepare your plates and toast - your scrambled eggs are less than two minutes from being ready.

Melt a knob of butter until it's sizzling.

I use a small non-stick frying pan which I save especially for egg dishes - either scrambled or omelettes.

Melting butter in frying pan

Tip the eggs in and using a plastic or silicone spatula (not metal) stir the eggs whilst they set.

Keep stirring over a medium heat and when they are just short of setting, remove them from the direct heat.

Stirring eggs

Continue to stir the eggs in the hot pan until they are as set as you like them.

Some people like them slightly runny, but I prefer them 'just' set.

Serve straight away with the smoked salmon as above.

Cook's Notes

When my son was at home, we would have this for breakfast while he opened and played with his toys. It was substantial enough to see us not feeling hungry until Christmas Dinner was ready some time in the late afternoon. He still likes to have this on Christmas morning, even though he's a grown man and has left home - he has a good plateful before he starts to cook.  I love this on days when I don't know what to cook - I have a pack of salmon in the freezer always and it makes for a quick, tasty and nutritious meal.
