Viral Crispy Feta Fried Eggs
Equipment
- 1 non-stick pan
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 medium sized wheat tortilla
- 2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese
- Few grape tomatoes, chopped
- sprinkle green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp neutral oil I used EVOO
Instructions
- In a non-stick skillet, heat up the tortilla until it is lightly brown on both sides.
- Set tortilla aside on a plate. Without oil, add crumbled feta to the pan in a circle, making sure to leave a bit of room in the middle of the egg. The circumference of the feta should be as wide as the size of your tortilla.
- Crack and egg in the middle and let the feta crisp up. Add a bit of oil around the edges to get the cheese nice and crispy.
- Once the egg whites are more settled, add in chopped grape tomatoes, and green onions.
- Once feta is nice and crispy and egg whites are no longer translucent, turn off the heat and remove the feta egg. Place it on top of the tortilla.
- Fold the tortilla like a taco and eat as is! Pop the yolk for maximum sauciness and enjoy!
