Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk eggs with cottage cheese until well-combined.

Heat a small nonstick frying pan over medium-low heat. Add oil or butter.

Pour the eggs into the pan, and as you see them setting around the edges, use a rubber or silicone spatula to gently push the cooked eggs into the middle of the pan. Continue to cook, folding and stirring the eggs every few seconds, but not constantly.

When the eggs still look wet but are mostly set, remove from heat. If desired, let the eggs continue to cook in warm pan, stirring or flipping over until no liquid egg remains. Cottage cheese eggs are best served when they are still soft and creamy.

Season with pepper. Cottage cheese is somewhat salty, so you may find that no extra salt is needed. Serve immediately.
