🧂 Ингредиенты

👨🍳 Инструкции
- 1
Prepare the vegetables: Finely dice the onion and tomatoes. Aim for uniform pieces for even cooking.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Sauté the aromatics: Melt the butter in a non-stick skillet or cast-iron pan over medium heat (approx. 175°C / 350°F). Add the diced onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to break down and release their juices.
⏱️ 8 minutes - 3
Prepare the eggs: While the vegetables are cooking, crack the eggs into a medium bowl. Add the salt and optional black pepper. Whisk vigorously with a fork or whisk until the yolks and whites are fully combined and slightly frothy. Do not over-whisk, just ensure no streaks of white remain.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 4
Scramble the eggs: Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the sautéed tomato and onion mixture in the skillet. Let the eggs set for about 15-20 seconds without stirring. Then, using a spatula, gently push the cooked egg from the edges towards the center, allowing the uncooked egg to flow underneath. Continue this process, folding and scrambling gently, until the eggs are just set and still slightly moist and creamy. Avoid overcooking, as this will result in dry, rubbery eggs.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Serve immediately: Remove the skillet from the heat. Serve the Perico hot, traditionally alongside warm arepas, or with toast. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired.
