  • 1 tablespoon oil for sautéing

  2. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat until shimmering and fragrant. Add the diced zucchini and minced garlic, sautéing until the zucchini is just tender and edges start to golden, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the sautéed vegetables, letting the mixture spread out across the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set and the bottom is starting to turn golden.

  4. Gently stir or fold the eggs and vegetables together, allowing the eggs to cook through but stay moist and fluffy. Continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the eggs are just set and slightly creamy.
  5. Drizzle the soy sauce over the scramble and give everything a gentle stir to incorporate the flavors evenly. Cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
