Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 large eggs
1/2 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 scallions, sliced
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 Persian cucumbers
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 whole wheat pitas
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚. Whisk the eggs, 1/4 cup yogurt, the dill, turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in an 8-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, until softened, about 30 seconds. Pour in the egg mixture. As the edges start to set, scrape them with a rubber spatula and push the cooked egg toward the middle of the pan. Continue doing this until the eggs are about half cooked, 2 to 3 minutes, then stop stirring and let the edges set, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle the feta on top.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the frittata is set and just a little soft in the middle when pressed, 13 to 15 minutes. Let cool in the skillet for a few minutes, then slide out onto a cutting board.
  • Meanwhile, slice the cucumbers and toss with 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Let sit 5 minutes, then drain off any liquid. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup yogurt and the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Warm the pitas in the oven, about 3 minutes; tear into quarters. Cut the frittata into wedges and divide among plates along with the cucumber salad and pita. Top the cucumber salad with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and the pomegranate seeds.

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.
