Eggs are one of the most favoured breakfast foods due to their versatility and nutritional value.
Feta eggs,wnhcih were all the rage on social media platforms like TikTok last year, are a delightful way to enjoy your morning eggs with added tanginess and a few extra grams of protein.
In this dish, eggs are cooked with crumbled feta until the whites are set, the yolks are perfectly jammy, and the feta develops a crispy edge.
You can opt to serve them sunny-side up or cover the pan for a steam-cooked finish.
All you need are crumbled feta, eggs, a nonstick pan, and some red pepper chilli flakes for added spice.

If you fancy turning them into a breakfast sandwich or toast, gather your desired toppings accordingly and serve on pita or sourdough bread.
Instructions
Begin by heating your nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Sprinkle a generous amount of crumbled feta cheese in a circle, ensuring to leave a space in the centre for the egg.
As the feta begins to melt, crack one or two large eggs into the centre of the feta ring.
Sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
Cover the pan with a lid to trap the steam, aiding in setting the egg whites without the need for flipping.
Once the egg is cooked to your desired consistency and the edges of the feta are golden brown and crispy, transfer the fried feta egg to a plate and serve immediately.
You can transform your fried feta egg into a delicious breakfast taco by placing it on a toasted corn tortilla alongside mashed avocado.
Simply spread the mashed avocado on the tortilla, then add the fried feta egg on top. Fold the tortilla over the filling, and your flavorful breakfast taco is ready to enjoy.
