  4. 4

    Stir slowly with a spatula, in wide strokes from the edges to the center, until the eggs are set but still moist and soft.

    💡Low heat and patience: eggs that cook slowly stay in soft, creamy curds, while over high heat they dry out and weep water.
  6. 6
    Take off the heat: the eggs keep setting in the heat of the pan.
  7. 7
    Fold in a third of the parmesan and pile the eggs on the brioche slices.
  8. 8
    Sprinkle the rest of the parmesan and the black pepper on top and serve with the lettuce leaves tossed with the lemon juice and olive oil.
