What are Mediterranean Eggs? Very similar to Israeli Shakshuka, my recipe calls for a base of slow cooked onions flavored with garlic and sun-dried tomatoes.
Once browned, crack eggs over the top and sprinkle some crumbled feta cheese. In the Mediterranean, people enjoy this dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner so take your pick, I think you’ll fall in love.
To make Mediterranean Eggs, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large cast iron or stainless steel skillet, over medium heat, heat oil and melt butter.
Add onions and toss to coat with the heated oil and butter. Spread into one, even layer and reduce the heat so that the onions are on a low sizzle. Cook, stirring every 5-10 minutes for about 1 hour until softened and deep brown.
Once onions have cooked, add garlic and sun-dried tomatoes and cook, stirring continuously for about 1-3 minutes until aromatic.
Spread out the mixture evenly over the base of the pan and crack the eggs on top.
Sprinkle feta cheese over everything and season with salt and pepper.
Cover pan with a tight fitting lid and cook, covered, for 10-15 minutes or until eggs are cooked to your preferred doneness.
Garnish with sprinkles of chopped parsley and serve with ciabatta rolls.
These Mediterranean Eggs are a wonderful home cooked and authentic recipe to try for breakfast one morning this week. It’s really good and everyone will be licking their plates clean. Take some pictures when you make this and tag #cookmerecipes online to share them with us.
