Truffle Cream Sauce with Eggs Recipe (+)

Directions

To make the truffle sauce: In a small heavy saucepan, boil the cream down to about 1/2 cup. Cool to room temperature and add the truffle bits. Set aside, if using soon (let steep for at least 30 minutes for flavor to develop); refrigerate, if holding for longer.
Prepare eggs: Break eggs into small mixing bowl and beat with water. Melt butter in hot non-stick skillet. Pour in eggs, lifting and moving uncooked portions until just set. Don't overcook--there should be some shine on the eggs. Salt and pepper to taste. Spoon warmed truffle sauce over and serve immediately.
