Fried Eggs (Avga Matia)
This is a simple and very common way to cook eggs. Fried eggs are mainly served for breakfast or a snack. In some countries, such as Luxembourg, they can be placed on top of a salad, burger or other main dish. In Greece, are served with feta cheese and some bread to allow dipping in the egg’s yolk.
- 2 eggs bio / organic or free range
- 40 ml olive oil
- sea salt
- ground pepper
- Place the eggs with the olive oil in a plate and serve. The low frying heat ensures that the olive oil and the eggs will not burn, thus, maximizing the nutritional benefit. Although high in calories, this is a healthy dish. Refer to the literature about the benefits of eggs and olive oil to human health. Enjoy!
