Equipment
- Bowl
- Spatula
Ingredients
- 1/2 tablespoon butter or as much needed for greasing skillet
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/8 teaspoon adobo seasoning or salt and pepper

- Transfer to Skillet. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet.
- Begin to Cook. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook over until the edges begin to set, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Use a rubber spatula to gently lift the cooked edges, tilting the skillet so the uncooked eggs flow into the open spaces.
- Gently Move the Egg Mixture. Once the edges set again, gently push the eggs toward the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to fill in around the edges.
- Continue Cooking. Repeat this process until the eggs are just set. Gently flip them to cook any remaining liquid egg. Then, use the spatula to break them into large, fluffy curds.
- Enjoy! Immediately transfer the eggs to a plate. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes
- I prefer a small skillet when cooking fewer than 5 eggs, and a large skillet when feeding a crowd.
- Depending on your stove's temperature range, medium-low to medium heat is key.
- The temperature is a balance. If it's too low, the eggs will stick to the pan. If it's too high, they will cook too quickly and won't be fluffy. So try to find a middle ground with the temp.
- Do not stir the eggs in the skillet. Gently push them aside and let the uncooked eggs flow into the open spaces.
- The residual heat will continue cooking the eggs, so remove them from the skillet just before they look fully set.
- Feel free to include your favorite mix-ins, but avoid adding too many. If the eggs are overloaded, they won't be as fluffy.
