There is something about TikTok’s fascination with feta cheese that we still can’t fully understand. But we are all for it because it results in some amazing culinary delights.
After TikTok unleashed its baked feta pasta on the world a few years ago, it has now become a source of another feta-inspired food trend: feta fried eggs.
It all started with TikTok user @graceelkus, who shared the recipe for feta fried eggs in a now-viral video that was viewed close to 12 million times in less than two weeks. Other TikTokers quickly jumped on the trend, and it is easy to see why. The dish is super simple to make and super delicious.
How to Make Feta Fried Eggs
To make @graceelkus’s feta fried eggs, simply crumble some feta cheese in a pan on medium heat and crack an egg on top of it. Sprinkle some black pepper and red pepper flakes on top and cover with a lid until the egg whites are cooked but the yolk is still a bit runny.
According to @graceelkus, you can serve these eggs on hash browns or toast or take a page from her book and wrap it inside a charred tortilla with some avocado and lime.
