Tools & supplies

Releases the cheese crust.
Thin spatula
Lifts egg and cheese together.
STEP BY STEP
Make it
Warm
Warm tortilla in a skillet and spread with avocado and lime.
Melt
Heat the small nonstick pan over medium. Crumble feta in a ring, leaving an egg-sized center.
Cook
When feta bubbles, crack egg into the center and season with pepper. Cover, reducing heat if cheese browns too quickly.
Serve
Cook until egg is set and cheese crisp, then slide the whole piece onto the tortilla.
Good to know
- Full-fat block feta melts more readily than fat-free cheese.
- Feta is salty; taste before adding any salt.
