Ecomely’s estimate, calculated from the ingredients with the ANSES Ciqual food composition table, excluding sides and seasoning added to taste.

Instructions

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the milk, salt and pepper, then beat lightly with a fork.
  2. Melt half the butter in a heavy-based saucepan over low heat.
  3. Pour in the eggs and stir constantly with a silicone spatula, scraping the bottom.
  4. When the mixture starts to thicken, take the pan off the heat and stir in the rest of the butter to stop the cooking.
  5. Keep stirring off the heat until you get a creamy, glossy texture with no dry lumps.
  6. Fold in the chopped chives, adjust the seasoning and serve straight away on rye bread.

Variations and tips

Shrimp version. Add peeled brown shrimps just before serving, as is often done in Norway.
