  • Ready in about 18 minutes—prep 10, cook 8.
  • Soft scrambled eggs with sesame-soy flavor and wilted spinach on toast.
  • Flexible: swap bread, use tamari for gluten-free, or omit sesame oil.

Ingredients (serves 2)

3 large eggs, 4 tbsp milk, 1 cup packed spinach, 2 slices sturdy bread, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp chopped scallion, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/8 tsp black pepper, 1 tbsp neutral oil.

Method

Whisk eggs with milk, soy sauce, sesame oil, scallion, salt, and pepper. Heat neutral oil in a nonstick skillet over medium. Sauté spinach 1–2 minutes until just wilted and push to one side. Pour egg mixture in, let set at edges, then gently stir and fold until softly scrambled and still moist. Toast bread until golden, divide eggs and spinach over toast, drizzle pan juices, and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

Use tamari for gluten-free, coconut or almond milk for dairy-free (same volume). For extra crispness, butter the toast before topping. Add chili oil or red pepper flakes for heat, or fold in grated cheese at the end for creaminess.

FAQs

Can I make this ahead? Scramble can be cooked and chilled, but toast fresh. Reheat eggs gently in a skillet with a splash of milk to restore moisture.
How do I keep the eggs soft? Cook over medium-low heat, remove from heat just before fully set—the residual heat finishes them—and avoid over-stirring.
Can I omit soy or sesame? Yes—omit or replace soy with a splash of Worcestershire or salt; omit sesame oil or use a mild oil for less nutty flavor.
