salt and pepper

Step by step

Follow the timeline: technique icon, time and temperature when relevant.

Step 1 Cook

Beat the egg whites with the whole egg, salt, and pepper
Step 2 Pan 2 min

Cook in a pan gently stirring for 2 minutes. Measure the ingredients before you start.
Step 3 Mix

Chef tips

Mise en place: chop and weigh before cooking so you don't run over time.
Taste for salt at the end; broths and canned foods already add sodium.
For meal prep, keep dressings separate until serving.

Variations

Substitutions for a vegan version

Instead of: egg

Use: crumbled firm tofu or chickpea flour mixed with water

Why: Egg binds and provides protein; tofu or chickpeas serve a similar function in stir-fries and frittatas.

Tip: For frittatas use tofu; for binding dough, 1 tablespoon of chickpea flour + 2 tablespoons of water per egg.

Other variations

Lighter version: reduce oil to 1 tablespoon and increase vegetables in Egg White Frittata with Smoked Salmon and Dill.
Batch cook: double quantities and store in containers for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
