Scrambled Eggs with Beans, known as Revuelto con Alubias Blancas

From Albert Brevia:

These Scrambled Eggs with Beans, known as Revuelto con Alubias Blancas, are possibly one of the most underrated dishes ever. We’re talking a ton of great flavors, seriously easy to make and all done in just 20 minutes. Serve them for breakfast or even for dinner, and always next to some Catalan Tomato Bread.

TIPS & TRICKS to Make this Recipe:A great scramble takes no more than 2 to 3 minutes to cook on a medium heat. If you overcook the eggs, they will end up with a rubbery texture. Make sure to use a nonstick fry pan. So the eggs don’t stick to the surface while cooking.
