Crispy Feta Fried Eggs 

These Crispy Feta Fried Eggs offer a delightful twist on traditional fried eggs. By crumbling feta cheese into the pan, it melts and crisps up around the egg, creating a golden, cheesy crust. Topped with fresh avocado, a squeeze of lemon juice, and garnished with pickled onions, this dish is both flavorful and satisfying.

Ingredients

• 1 large egg

• ¾ oz (20g) feta cheese

• 1 small tortilla or slice of toasted bread

• ¼ avocado

• Dried oregano

• Red pepper flakes (optional)

• Cooking oil spray or olive oil spray

• Lemon juice

• Pickled onions (for garnish)

• Chili oil (optional, for drizzling)

Directions

1. Prepare the Pan:
   Lightly spray a small fry pan with cooking oil. Crumble the feta cheese into the pan, ensuring it covers the outer edge.

2. Cook the Feta:
   Sauté the crumbled feta over medium heat for a couple of minutes until it begins to melt and turn golden brown.

3. Add the Egg:
   Gently crack the egg into the center of the pan, directly over the melted feta.

4. Season:
   Sprinkle the egg with dried oregano and red pepper flakes, if using. Allow the egg to cook to your desired doneness.

5. Prepare the Base:
   While the egg is cooking, warm the tortilla on a gas stove, in the oven, or in the microwave. Smash the avocado onto the tortilla and drizzle with a squeeze of lemon juice.

6. Assemble:
   Once the egg is cooked and the feta has formed a crispy crust, carefully remove it from the pan and place it on top of the prepared tortilla.

7. Garnish and Serve:
   Top the egg with pickled onions and drizzle with chili oil, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
