Description

This viral recipe is crispy, creamy, and packed with bold Mediterranean flavor. The magic happens when crumbled feta hits a hot pan, forming a golden, lacy crust under a perfectly fried egg. Served on toasted bread or a warm tortilla with smashed avocado, pickled onions, and chili oil—this dish is fast, fiery, and full of texture.


Ingredients

Scale

2 large eggs

1½ oz (40g) feta cheese, crumbled

2 small tortillas or slices of toasted sourdough

½ avocado, smashed

Pinch of dried oregano

Red pepper flakes to taste

Squeeze of lemon juice

Garnish: pickled red onions, drizzle of chili oil

Optional twist: top with microgreens or add a swipe of hummus


Instructions

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lightly spray with oil.

Sprinkle crumbled feta into two small circles in the pan. Let sizzle for 30 seconds.

Crack an egg onto each feta nest. Cover and cook 2–3 minutes until whites are set and edges are golden and crisp.

Meanwhile, toast bread or warm tortillas.
