I tried the technique from Gordon Ramsey:

Now, that's the only way I scramble eggs. This method absolutely produces the
creamiest, most moist scrambled eggs than any other method I've tried.

When I make breakfast for me and my boy (while mom sleeps in on Sunday), I use
one or two eggs depending on the size. I crack the eggs into a glass bowl and
add a slice of butter. I always do this before I start preparation of other
goodies for breakfast so the eggs and butter aren't so cold when I'm ready to
use them.

When everything else is cooked, I make the scrambled eggs -- I pour the
unscrambled eggs and slice of butter into a non-stick omelet fry pan over the
fire, and start to stir with a spatula. I break the yolks and stir gently.
When the eggs are starting to solidify on the bottom of the pan, I remove the
pan and stir off the fire, then return to the fire. I do this about two to four
times until done.
