Perfect scrambled eggs

Method

1. Break the eggs into a bowl, add the milk and season with salt and pepper. Whisk until the yolks and whites are well mixed. 

2. Put a blob of butter into a cold saucepan, pour in the egg mixture and stir continuously, preferably with a flat-bottomed wooden spatula over a low heat, until the eggs have scrambled into soft creamy curds. Serve immediately on warm plates with lots of hot buttered toast or fresh soda bread.
   
   Note: If the plates are too hot the scrambled eggs will actually overcook between the stove and the table.
