Steps
Crack the eggs straight into a cold nonstick pan with the butter — don't beat them first.
Set over medium heat and start stirring continuously with a spatula as the butter melts.
Keep the eggs moving, lifting the pan off the heat whenever they start to set too fast, then returning it.
Continue until they form small, soft, glossy curds that still look slightly underdone.
Pull off the heat and stir in the crème fraîche to stop the cooking and add richness.
Season with salt only at the end, scatter with chives, and serve immediately on toast.
💡 Tips
- Season at the very end — salt too early can make eggs weep.
- Moving the pan on and off the heat keeps the curds tiny and creamy.
- They keep cooking off the heat, so stop early.
