Dill Feta Scramble Recipes

GREEK YOGURT SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH FRESH DILL & FETA

Steps:

• Add olive oil to a large non-stick saute pan over medium heat.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, yogurt, salt, pepper, and chopped dill until well-blended.
• Pour the eggs into the pan and cook, stirring frequently, until fluffy, solid, and no longer runny, 4-5 minutes. Add feta and combine.
• Remove from heat and serve immediately, topped with with sprigs of fresh dill, if desired.

GREEK FRITTATA WITH DILL-FETA SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Whisk the eggs, 2 tablespoons water, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a medium bowl. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, scallion whites and oregano and cook until the scallions are golden, 1 to 3 minutes. Add the egg mixture and stir with a rubber spatula to evenly distribute the scallion mixture. Draw the edges of the egg toward the center of the pan with the spatula a few times. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, undisturbed, until the edges and bottom are set but the top is still wet, about 4 minutes.
• Sprinkle the tomatoes, 1/2 cup feta and the olives on top of the frittata. Transfer to the broiler and cook until the top is just set and the edges are golden, about 4 minutes. Slide the frittata out of the pan onto a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the vinegar and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the lettuce, dill and scallion greens; season with salt and pepper and toss. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup feta. Cut the frittata into wedges and serve with the salad.

DILL FETA SCRAMBLE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and egg whites; season with salt and pepper. Whisk in cheese.
• In a small nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-low. Cook eggs, scraping bottom frequently with a flexible heatproof spatula, until just set, 1 to 2 minutes; stir in dill.
• Spoon eggs into pita halves, and garnish with more dill.

TURKISH EGGS WITH OLIVES, FETA AND TOMATOES (MENEMEN)

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add half the scallions and cook until beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, add the bell peppers and cook until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, red-pepper flakes and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook until some of the liquid from the tomatoes evaporates, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toast the pita or flatbread on an open flame on the stovetop over low heat, turning with long metal tongs, until toasted and warmed on all sides. Wrap well in a kitchen towel to keep warm.
• When most of the liquid has evaporated from the tomatoes, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet. Add the eggs and let them cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until large curds form and the eggs are mostly cooked through but still slightly runny, about 3 minutes. Stir in the feta and cook until scrambled eggs are just cooked and feta is slightly melted, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the parsley, cilantro and remaining scallions. Serve warm, with olives and pita on the side.
