Viral Feta Fried Eggs
We start by warming some crumbled feta (always use feta in brine, never pre-crumbled) in a pan, and frying an egg directly on top to create a lacy, crispy, cheesy crust. Meanwhile, we char a tortilla, smash on some avocado and seasoning, and add the cheesy egg right on top. Perfection!
Servings: 1
Equipment
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup feta
- 1 egg large
- ½ avocado
- salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 6-inch tortilla (any variety: corn, flour, nut-based)
- 1 teaspoon chives chopped
Instructions
- Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble in the feta and immediately crack an egg into the center.
- The feta is salty so I don't season the egg but you can if you wish. Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Cook for a few minutes until the egg white is set, the yolk is still runny, and the feta is crispy and golden on the bottom.
- In a bowl, mash the avocado with a pinch of salt and a touch of lemon juice.
- I charred the tortilla in a pan on the stove and added the mashed avocado on top.
- Slide the fried feta egg on top of the tortilla, garnish with chives (if desired), and enjoy!
