Broccoli Mushroom Scrambled Eggs

Par-cook broccoli in the microwave or a quick blanch before stir-frying for even texture.

Steps

How to make it

Prep 7 min · Cook 10 min

  1. Cut broccoli 1 bowl into small florets; slice mushrooms 1 bowl; beat 2 eggs. Mix 1/4 tsp salt and a pinch of black pepper in a small bowl.
  2. Microwave broccoli florets 1 minute or blanch 30 seconds until half tender; drain and set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir-fry mushrooms 2 minutes until they release moisture, soften slightly, and edges curl.
  4. Add broccoli and toss 1 minute until brighter green; stems should stay crisp.
  5. Push vegetables to the side, pour in beaten eggs; when the bottom half-sets, gently push into soft curds with a spatula (about 1 minute).
  6. Toss everything together; season with salt and black pepper. Serve when eggs are half-set and still moist.

Tips & storage

Make it easier

  • Do not overcook broccoli—keep a little snap.
  • Drain vegetables well before cooking; excess water steams them and softens the texture.

Refrigerate up to 1 day; good for next-day lunch.

FAQ

Skip par-cooking the broccoli?

You can, but stir-fry longer and splash in a little water, covered, to steam through.

What should I do if the vegetables release water?

Drain them well and cook in batches so the pan stays hot instead of turning the vegetables soft and watery.
