📝 Preparation Steps
1
Crack three large eggs into a medium bowl. Add 1/2 cup of cottage cheese directly into the bowl with the eggs. Use a fork or whisk to beat them together until yolks and whites are fully blended with the cheese. It will look a bit lumpy, which is normal.

Place a non stick skillet over medium heat. Add one tablespoon of butter or olive oil. Let it melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly. Wait until the butter foams slightly; if it browns too fast, reduce the heat.

Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture into the center of the pan. Let it sit for a moment to start setting on the bottom. Then, use a spatula to gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center. Continue this folding motion, cooking for about 3 to ⏱️ 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat when the eggs are just set and still look slightly wet.
