GREEK SCRAMBLED EGGS



Greek Scrambled Eggs image

For a fresh and bright variation on your morning eggs, try strapatsatha, a simple Greek dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes. It's as simple as can be: The best, freshest tomatoes you can find are grated on a box grater and reduced a bit, then scrambled with eggs, a little olive oil and garlic. A handful of tangy feta crumbles finishes it off.

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large, ripe, firm tomatoes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 garlic clove, finely chopped (optional)
1 tablespoon fresh or dried mint or oregano
4 large eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 cup grated Greek kefalotyri or feta cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Lop off a dime-size piece of the base of the tomato using a sharp knife. Grate the tomato from the base along the coarse side of an upright hand grater.
  • In a 10-inch frying pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil and add the garlic. Cook for a minute or so, careful not to burn. Add the tomatoes. Cook them until all their water has cooked off and all that's left is thick pulp, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour in the eggs and herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Stir all together with a wooden spoon. Remove when the eggs are cooked to desired doneness, anywhere between 5 and 8 minutes.
  • Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with grated Greek kefalotyri cheese.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 23m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 -8 large eggs
3 tablespoons of fresh mint, minced
2 tablespoons minced flat leaf parsley
1 teaspoon fresh oregano, minced (or 1/2 tsp. dried oregano)
3 tablespoons scallions, minced
black pepper, freshly ground
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups fresh spinach (packed)
3/4-1 cup feta, crumbled
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes (or or ripe tomatoes, diced)

Steps:

  • Break the eggs into a medium bowl and beat with a whisk until smooth. Stir in the herbs and scallion, and add in a good, amount of black pepper.
  • Place a 10-inch sauté pan or skillet over medium heat. After 1-2 minutes, add the olive oil, wait about 10 seconds, then swirl to coat the pan. Turn the heat up to medium-high, add the spinach, and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted and turned a deep green.
  • With the heat at medium-high, pour the eggs into the pan, scrambling them slowly As eggs begin to set, push the curds from the bottom to one side, allowing uncooked egg to flow into the pan. The spinach will blend into the eggs.
  • When the eggs are almost set but still slightly wet, sprinkle in the crumbled feta. Continue scrambling slowly, allowing the cheese to melt slightly into the eggs. After a minute, stir in the tomatoes.
  • Cook for just a few seconds longer, or until the eggs are done to your liking. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

SIMPLE GREEK SCRAMBLED EGGS

I saw a recipe here for Greek Scrambled Eggs and wanted to make them at work, but realized I didn't have all the ingredients so I simplified it. These are a pretty good seller when I put them up on the Specials Board.

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 eggs, beaten
3 -4 tablespoons green peppers, diced
3 tablespoons green onions, chopped
1 -2 tablespoon black olives, sliced (optional)
2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled
all purpose Greek seasoning, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl beat eggs. Add green pepper, green onion and olives (if using).
  • Heat pan and coat with cooking spray or coat with oil.
  • Scramble fry eggs, season with greek seasoning, when almost done top with feta, I usually add a couple tablespoons of water and cover so the feta starts to melt.
  • Serve with toast and or hashbrowns or even rice.
  • When I first started making this I didn't have the greek seasoning, and you can use any color peppers. I think the olives are optional, mostly because I don't like them and I find people around here don't like them either.
