My OH had scrambled eggs for the first time whilst at a hotel at the weekend. I usually poach them for him. He loved them and started asking how to do them. This is how the conversation went ;-
Me - You just whisk them up and cook them
Him- But do you boil or fry them first ?
Me- (after picking myself up of the floor laughing) Neither, They are raw.
Him- Raw ? You mean Im eating raw eggs ?
Me - No, you crack a raw egg into a pan and cook it gently
Him - Then do you drain the water off ?
Me - (PMSL) What water ?
Him - The water that you cook them in !!
Me - You dont cook them in water. Its just eggs in a pan or dish in the microwave cos they can burn the pan which is why I dont them them

Now come on all you fellas (or women) out there, how many of you can scramble eggs

well I can, and so can OH - we love 'em with smoked salmon for a treat.
Yes, the just need to be cooked slowly, so many people over cook them. I would NEVER cook them in a microwave.
I put milk and salt and pepper in mine and scramble them in the microwave. Come out lovely with no nasty pan to scrub.
My mother taught me to scramble eggs when I was small. Also did it at school when I was 11.
I do much of my own cooking as Mrs Dyed and I work different hours and eat at different times.
I'd take a stab at cooking them, but as I don't like them I've never cooked them, so no, I don't really know how to cook scrambled eggs.
I do a mean omelette though!
A dab of butter in the pan first then add the eggs and scramble. They should still be cooking as you serve them.
I've been complimented on my scrambled eggs - the secret is to stop applying the heat in time and let the residual heat complete the task. Then serve and eat immediately.

No problem at all, and as boxy says, with Smoked Salmon for a treat, usually Sunday B'fast!
If you keep an eye in it you don't let it stick too much and put the pot in soak straight away.
I can't get the hang of making it in a microwave - there seems to be about 3 seconds between liquid and rubber.
butter in the pan add lightly beaten eggs and cook until thick and creamy. Take off heat and add a dash of cream to stop them overcooking and serve on toast with lots of ketchup
Ketchup! Never
only works for me if there is ham and mushrooms in the mix
I cook mine in a non stick frying pan.
Low heat and always stir in a figure of 8 I'm told.
Its a basic skill isnt it?? I only cook mine for 60 seconds with a dash of whole milk. Dont like it too solid. Then wash the pan straight away!!
Finish with some black pepper. I have added a small knob of butter but can go runny when put on the plate.
I have the palate of a five-year-old, but i can cook the food I like, including scambled eggs.

Since i would rather scrub the toilet than cook, it has to be easy ifIi can do it!

I also make very tasty omlettes, a favourite of the present Mrs Hughes.
How can you not be able to scramble eggs???????????????
easy peasy
I do mine in the microwave, about 20 seconds (or less) at a time. Lump of butter, splodge of milk, salt and pepper, keep stirring. Lovely.
\\\\Now come on all you fellas (or women) out there, how many of you can scramble eggs\\\

You mean AND make them look like and taste like scrambled eggs?

Not me, for sure, never tried to scramble eggs, never had the need or the desire......got a wife.......that is their job isn't it?

Although most of the famous chef's are MALE.

When she is away...village cafe does scrambled eggs toast and coffee for €4 about £3 so what is the point in learning how to do them?
