  1. 1

    Melt butter in a small non-stick pan over medium-low heat.

    Add thinly sliced onion and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, for 10-15 minutes until deeply caramelized and tender. Season with a pinch of salt.

  3. 3

    While onions are caramelizing, whisk eggs with a splash of milk (optional, for creamier eggs) and season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Push caramelized onions to one side of the pan. Pour egg mixture into the other side.

  5. 5

    Once eggs begin to set, gently scramble them. Fold in the caramelized onions and pickled-red-onions just before serving.

  6. 6

    Serve immediately.
