Description
A quick and flavorful breakfast combining salty, crunchy feta with tender fried egg yolks, perfect for busy mornings or simple brunches.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 eggs
- 100g feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (e.g., parsley or dill) for garnish
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat until hot but not smoking.
- Crumble feta cheese into the pan and spread it evenly; let it heat until it crisps and turns golden.
- Carefully crack the eggs over the crispy feta and cook until whites are set and yolks are runny, about 3-4 minutes.
- Season lightly with salt and black pepper, garnish with fresh herbs, and serve immediately.
Notes
Serve on thick toasted bread for a breakfast sandwich or over warm grains for a hearty bowl. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days, but note that the feta will lose some crispiness.
