How to make viral feta eggs?
Now, let's walk through the step-by-step process of making Feta Eggs:
- Take a pan and keep it on a medium heat.
- Now, add the cherry tomatoes, whole garlic cloves, and feta cheese in the centre. Drizzle olive oil generously over the top.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. If you prefer spicy food, consider adding red pepper flakes for some spice.
- Now, cover this with a lid until the tomatoes have burst and the feta cheese has softened and slightly browned.
- While the tomato and feta mixture is on the pan, prepare your eggs. You can either crack them into a bowl one by one or create little wells within the tomato and feta mixture to gently nestle the eggs.
- Once the tomato and feta mixture is ready, remove it from the pan and gently stir everything together. The feta should melt into a creamy sauce.
- Carefully crack the eggs over the top of the mixture. You can season the eggs with additional salt and pepper if desired.
- Return the dish to the pan and put it on a medium flame for another 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set, but the yolks are still runny.
- Once done, garnish your Feta Eggs with fresh basil leaves for a burst of colour and flavour.
- Serve the dish hot, straight from the pan, with your choice of bread or toast for a complete breakfast experience.
