Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- Pinch of salt
- 5-10 Rakveres sausages
- 100 g butter
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 60 ml milk
- Cheese (as needed, for topping)
Preparation Time
Total Time: 20 minutes
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Beat the Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and add a pinch of salt. Beat them well until fully combined.
- Mix in Dairy: Pour in the milk and stir thoroughly. Then, add the sour cream, mixing until you obtain a smooth, uniform mixture.
- Prepare the Pan: Place a pan over medium heat and melt 100 g of butter until it's fully liquid.
- Slice and Cook Sausages: Cut the Rakveres sausages into slices about 0.5 cm thick. Place them in the pan with the melted butter and cook for approximately 3 minutes until they start to brown.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour the beaten egg mixture over the sausages in the pan.
- Cook the Mixture: Gently and continuously stir the mixture to prevent it from sticking or burning. Cook until the eggs are softly set, ensuring the sausages are evenly distributed throughout.
- Add Cheese: Once the eggs have cooked to your liking, remove the pan from the heat, and immediately sprinkle your preferred quantity of cheese on top, allowing it to melt from the residual heat.
- Serve: Transfer the scrambled eggs with sausages to a serving dish and enjoy them hot.
- Taste Test: Ensure the seasoning is to your taste, adding more salt if necessary.
- Garnish (optional): Garnish with fresh herbs for added flavor if desired.
Tips
- Cheese Choice: Use a cheese that melts well, like cheddar or mozzarella, for the best results.
- Egg Consistency: For creamier eggs, reduce the heat and cook them slowly.
- Sausage Substitute: If you can't find Rakveres sausages, substitute with your favorite mild sausage.
