Japanese-inspired scrambled eggs
Creamy and flavourful scrambled eggs with miso, ginger and a touch of sesame oil. Perfect for a quick breakfast or a light lunch with plenty of character.
An easy way to add extra flavour to scrambled eggs
If you feel like trying a new variation on classic scrambled eggs, this Japanese-inspired version is an obvious choice. The combination of miso, freshly grated ginger and sesame oil gives the eggs a rich, aromatic flavour, while chilli and coriander add freshness and a little heat. The result is soft, creamy eggs with plenty of flavour that are both quick and easy to make.
You do not need a particularly large frying pan for this dish. We recommend our ZERO frying pan 22cm. A practical kitchen tool that does not take up too much space.

Tip for extra creamy scrambled eggs
Stir the eggs gently as they cook to preserve their soft, creamy texture. Excessive heat can quickly dry out scrambled eggs.
To bring out the flavour even more, make sure you whisk the miso, ginger and water thoroughly with the eggs so the ingredients are distributed evenly throughout the dish.
Serving
Serve the Japanese-inspired scrambled eggs while they are still warm and soft. The creamy texture and aromatic flavours are at their best just after cooking. The fresh chilli and coriander add both colour and a fresh contrast to the rich flavour of miso and ginger.
To make the dish look a little more inviting, top with a little extra coriander and a few thin slices of chilli just before serving. This gives the dish an attractive, appetising appearance.
It is a simple dish that shows how much flavour you can create with just a few ingredients. The combination of eggs, miso, ginger and sesame oil offers an interesting variation on classic scrambled eggs that is both quick to make and full of character.
