Method
Wash the green4 onions and finely chop the green parts into 1 cm pieces; cut the salmon2 into 1.5 cm cubes; beat the eggs1; heat a 20–24 cm skillet over medium heat and melt the butter3.
Sauté the salmon2 in the butter3 over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes until a light golden crust forms.
Pour in the beaten eggs1 and cook over low heat, stirring with a spatula, for about 2–3 minutes until creamy.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, add the green4 onions, and continue to stir gently.
Continue cooking over low heat until the mixture is creamy and slightly soft inside.
Remove from heat and serve immediately with slices of whole5-grain bread.
Tips
- Why it works
- Cook salmon first so it browns and stays tender; eggs will overcook if added too early. The butter must melt fully to prevent sticking.
- Substitutions
- Use smoked trout instead of salmon for a stronger flavor. Replace green onions with 10g chopped chives if unavailable.
- Common mistakes
- Overcooking makes eggs dry and rubbery. Stop when they’re still slightly runny inside. Salmon turns opaque and loses moisture if overcooked.
- Storing and reheating
- Eat fresh; eggs and salmon lose texture after 1 day. Reheat gently in a dry pan for 1 minute if needed.
- Serve with
- Pair with a slice of avocado or a small side of sautéed spinach for extra greens.
In short
- Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
