Method

Position oven rack about 5 to 6 inches from heat, then preheat broiler. In a large non-stick oven-proof skillet heat oil on medium, saute the onions for 5 minutes. Meanwhile in a large bowl whisk the eggs with the salt until light, about 1 minute, then add the cheese and smoked salmon. Pour into skillet and stir often until eggs start to set about 4 minutes. Let cook without stirring for 1 minute, then place skillet under the broiler until eggs are set all the way through. In a small bowl mix together the sour cream, dill, cucumber and hot sauce. Turn eggs out onto a large serving plate then cut into 6 wedges; top each wedge with a large dollop of the sour cream mixture.

 

Notes: If skillet handle is not ovenproof wrap a few times with foil. The hot sauce I use for this recipe is made by Tabasco.
