Super easy and very quick dish with tomatoes, eggs, and feta cheese. I say it serves 2, but with some rustic, freshly baked bread, it might not even be enough for one...

Steps

15 minutes

1

Mix the grated fresh tomatoes with the tomato paste and sugar. Place in a skillet over medium heat and cook until the liquid evaporates. Add a little salt (depending on how salty your cheese is), oregano, and pepper.
2

Check if the liquid has evaporated by making a space in the center of the skillet with a spoon. The sauce should stay around the edges, and almost no liquid should flow into the center.
3

Pour the olive oil into the space (use as much as you like; I use about 1/2 cup). Once it warms up a bit, add the egg to the oil, stir it first with the oil, then mix it into the whole sauce, making sure there are no large pieces left.
4

Once the egg is mixed in and starts to cook, turn off the heat and add the cheese, crumbling it in by hand. Gently stir so the cheese is evenly distributed and softens.
5

The dish is ready to serve. If you have some freshly baked bread and a good Robola wine to go with it, turn off your phone and computer and... enjoy! I'm off to make strapatsada...
