Turn an ordinary scrambled egg meal into a gourmet feast with one of the most versatile and delicious wild mushrooms-chanterelles. I dry cleaned the chanteerelles with paper towels, but if prefer water, just make sure do it quickly rather than soaking them so they do not get soggy. And dry them off with a clean towel. Pre-salt the egg mixture 5-10 minutes before cooking changes the structure of proteins, making the scarmbled eggs much more tender.

- Clean the chanterelles with a paper towel or a mushroom brush. Wipe off any dirt and grime thoroughly. Cut the larger mushrooms into smaller pieces. Leave the smaller ones whole.
- Peel the shallot and finely chop it. Set aside. Whisk the eggs, cream, salt and pepper in a bowl until combined. Set aside for 5-10 minutes.
- Melt the butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and fry for a couple of minutes until aromatic. Add in the prepared chanterelles and fry for 6-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until excess liquid evaporates and mushrooms start to sizzle.
- Lower the heat to medium-low. Pour in the egg and cook for 1 1/2 minutes or until mixture starts to set. Using a spatula, push set egg towards centre of pan, tilting pan to allow uncooked egg to run over base. Cook for 2 minutes or until eggs form creamy curds.
- Sprinkle with chopped fresh herb and crushed pink peppercorns if using. Serve immediately.
Sounds yummy Angie, I love both scrambled eggs and mushrooms.
ReplyDeleteTake care, enjoy your day and the new week ahead.
...an interesting combination.
ReplyDeleteI know those would have to be good, yum!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I would deeply enjoy that breakfast or lunch, I do ever so love me scrambled eggs but never make them myself. I do not eat shrooms during summer, but now that rain came finally with the prelude of Autumn, I might do some button mushrooms again.
ReplyDeleteSo yummy!

ReplyDeleteTheHub would love this.
ReplyDeleteSomeone gifted me a large chantrelle they found on a morning walk. I was going to put it with eggs or in soup but I butter sauteed it and ate it all just that way. They're very delicious and so common here where I live.
ReplyDeleteNever had it but would try it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, my mouth is watering!
ReplyDeleteThis is a recipe I also have on my blog and it's so good!
ReplyDeleteI am salivating at the mere thought of this one, Angie. I must look in the store for chanterelles.

ReplyDeleteDivine! Eggs and mushrooms -- especially mushrooms like chanterelles -- are fabulous together. All this needs is a glass of white wine...
ReplyDeleteSo simple yet delicious! Now I want chanterelles, Angie! Sadly, they’re hard to find here, and if you’re lucky enough to spot them, they cost an arm and a leg :)
ReplyDeleteThey look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteGood cleaning suggestion for the mushrooms. This looks delicious
ReplyDeleteEgg is the most versatile food we can ever have. Your scrambled egg looked so beautifully done. I like creamer, tender scramble.

ReplyDeleteGreat tip to salt the eggs about 10-minutes before cooking! I've been doing it for a year or so and boy does it make a lovely difference. I never thought to pair the eggs with Chanterelles, definitely going to try it.
