Preparation
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.
Arrange the muffin slices across a baking tray and brush each slice with a thin layer of butter. Place in the oven and cook for 10 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
Meanwhile, prepare the eggs. Melt the butter in a medium-sized saucepan and, in a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the milk and a pinch of salt.
Once melted, pour the egg mixture over the butter and stir continuously as it begins to cook, using a scraping motion to ensure no egg sticks to the bottom (a heatproof spatula works best).
Once the egg begins to thicken, remove the pan from the hob and onto a board, continuing to stir as the egg cooks in the residual heat of the pan.
Remove the muffins from the oven and place 2 slices on each plate. Scoop the eggs over the top and lie the folds of smoked salmon to the side. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice, black pepper and a pinch of chives to serve.
