Yeah, I know.... who ever has leftover steak?
Well,I did. It was a delicious and perfectly cooked medium rare NY Strip
steak, but it was about twice as much as I could handle. I split the
rest of it with my wife for breakfast this morning. I beat up some eggs
with a little water,salt and pepper and a good splash of Trinidadian hot
sauce. I cut the steak into thin slices, melted some butter in a hot
pan, warmed up the slices in the butter and then added the eggs and
stirred them around, taking them off while they were still nice and
shiny. It turned out to be an excellent idea. They were delicious.

Next time try a splash of milk or cream. Water has no flavor, just adds
volume.

liquid that I don't get with water. If I had had some spinach on hand I
would have thrown some in.

All you need is about a tablespoon.

Itsjoan, leading experts recommend adding a T. of water for each egg when making scrambled
or an omelet because it makes a fluffier, lighter result than adding milk. I guess it all
depends on what result is wanted.

anything. I want dense eggs. If I want fluffy I'll eat a baby

I was replying to Nancy2 quoting "leading experts". I never add
anything. I want dense eggs. If I want fluffy I'll eat a baby

learned. I later learned to use water, and I prefer the way they turn out.

When I make scrambled eggs I only beat them enough to combine the
whites and yolks, trying to incorporate as little air as possible.
No milk, no water, but I add a little salt.

Same here. I don't add water or milk to scrambled eggs. Might
give the water a try to see how fluffy eggs taste though.
When I make fried eggs (over easy), I cook 2-3.
When I make scrambled eggs, I cook 4.
The first 3 I eat plain with toast.
The last egg (1/4 of the dish) I mix with ketchup.
It's the dessert part of my scrambled egg meal.
It's all good here. Each to their own, eh?

I do. :)

perfectly cooked medium rare the night before. Heat it up in a small
cast iron skillet on low heat until heated through. I've never added
steak *to* scrambled eggs and am not really interested. Bacon is a
whole different story. :)

good. I had had steak and egg breakfasts in a number of restaurants and
had suggested it to my wife. She rejected the idea and said steak and
eggs are not a good combination. Last summer we had breakfast in a local
restaurant. I ordered the eggs Florentine and convinced her to try steak
and eggs. She was impressed.

in scrambled eggs. It was in a restaurant last summer that she had an
order of steak and eggs. She had fried eggs, home fries and a small NY
strip steak. I have to say that it was a pretty good deal. It was just a
couple bucks more than my eggs Florentine, and it was a 7-8 oz steak.
