Über-chic Pink Tartan founder, Kimberly Newport-Mimran, shares this luxe appetizer with us — inspired by her favourite New York restaurant, Jean-Georges.

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper, optional

Instructions
CRACK eggs into a bowl. Whisk in milk, Dijon, salt and cayenne. Melt butter in a medium non-stick frying pan over medium. Swirl pan to coat bottom and side. Add egg mixture. Gently and constantly scrape along bottom of pan, pushing eggs from side to side until large, soft curds form, 3 to 5 min. Spoon into small serving bowls and top with crème fraîche and caviar. Serve immediately.
