Comment préparer

1
Melt 20 g of the butter with the olive oil in a 26 cm skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring, until translucent and lightly golden at the edges.
2
Add the sliced green pepper and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant but not browned.
3
Stir in the tomatoes and half the salt. Simmer uncovered for 7 to 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have collapsed into a thick, spoonable sauce with little free liquid.

4
Beat the eggs with the remaining salt and the black pepper. Lower the skillet heat to medium-low, pour in the eggs, and stir slowly with a spatula, sweeping across the bottom every few seconds.
5
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, folding rather than vigorously scrambling, until the eggs form soft, moist curds and reach at least 74°C. Remove from the heat while they still look slightly glossy.

Dot with the remaining 10 g butter and let it melt for 1 minute. Serve immediately in the skillet with crusty bread.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

Cooking the peppers until tender builds a sweet, savory base, while the tomatoes create a lightly reduced sauce that coats the eggs without overwhelming their soft curds. Finishing with butter adds roundness and sheen.

Conservation et réchauffage

Comment la conserver

Refrigerate leftovers in a covered container for up to 2 days. Cool within 2 hours of cooking.

Comment la réchauffer

Reheat gently in a covered skillet over low heat, stirring occasionally, until hot throughout; avoid high heat, which makes the eggs rubbery.
