Step-by-Step Method
Mix the eggs and spices
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk. Add salt, white pepper, black pepper, and nutmeg, then stir until evenly combined.
Bind with lemon and crumbs
Pour in the lemon juice. Sprinkle in the fine breadcrumbs little by little and mix until the texture looks cohesive. If it gets too thick, loosen with 1–2 tbsp water.
Heat the pan
Melt the margarine in a wide skillet over medium heat. Once hot, get ready to cook the mixture in the pan.
Sear, then cook gently
Cook the mixture with steady heat; when the bottom sets, turn carefully with a spatula. Lower the heat and continue cooking slowly so it doesn’t scorch; total cooking time is about 70 minutes.
Finish and serve
In the last 5–10 minutes, add lemon slices to the pan. Take off the heat, scatter parsley over the top, and serve warm.
