Description

A quick, flavorful, and satisfying dish combining crispy feta, a perfectly fried egg, creamy avocado, and zesty toppings, all layered on warm tortilla or toast.


Ingredients

1 large egg

¾ oz / 20g feta cheese

1 small tortilla or slice of toasted bread

¼ avocado

Dried oregano

Red pepper flakes

Cooking oil spray or olive oil spray

Lemon juice

Pickled onions (for garnish)

Chili oil (for garnish)


Instructions

1. Spray a small skillet with cooking oil and crumble feta cheese around the outer edge of the pan.

2. Let the cheese sizzle on medium heat for 2–3 minutes until it begins to melt and crisp.

3. Crack the egg into the center of the pan inside the ring of cheese.

4. Sprinkle dried oregano and red pepper flakes over the egg and let it cook to your preferred doneness.

5. While the egg cooks, warm the tortilla or toast, and mash the avocado on top. Add a squeeze of lemon juice.

6. Once the egg is ready and the feta has formed a golden crust, remove it carefully with a spatula.

7. Place the egg and crispy cheese layer over the avocado tortilla or toast.

8. Top with pickled onions and a drizzle of chili oil.

9. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, use a gluten-free tortilla or toast.

Control the heat by adjusting chili oil and red pepper flakes.

Use dairy-free feta substitutes if needed for dairy-free diets.
