Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk with a pinch of salt and pepper until combined.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-low heat until melted and foamy.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in eggs and let sit 10 seconds, then gently push them from the edges to the center with a spatula.

  4. Step 4

    When eggs are still slightly wet, fold in cottage cheese and cook until no liquid remains, about 1 minute.

  5. Step 5

    While eggs cook, toast bread and butter both slices. Dress salad with a pinch of salt and a tiny drizzle of olive oil.

  6. Step 6

    Serve eggs on a plate alongside toast, salad, tomatoes, and a spoonful of beetroot relish.
