Ingredients

• 4 medium ripe tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 4 large eggs
• 100 grams feta cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil or parsley (optional, for garnish)
• 2 slices rustic bread (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Blanch the tomatoes by scoring a small 'X' on the bottom of each and placing them in boiling water for 30 seconds. Transfer to a bowl of ice water and peel off the skins.

Step 2

Chop the peeled tomatoes into small pieces and set aside in a bowl, preserving their juices.

Step 3

In a medium skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the chopped tomatoes and their juices to the pan, cooking for 8-10 minutes until most of the liquid has evaporated and the tomatoes have softened into a thick, saucy consistency.

Step 5

While the tomatoes are cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl and lightly whisk them with a fork.

Step 6

Lower the heat to medium-low and pour the whisked eggs into the skillet with the tomato mixture, stirring constantly to scramble and incorporate the eggs with the tomatoes.

Step 7

Crumble the feta cheese directly into the skillet and stir to combine, letting the cheese melt slightly into the mixture.

Step 8

Season with salt, black pepper, and dried oregano. Adjust the seasoning to taste.

Step 9

Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the eggs are just set and creamy but not overcooked.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with fresh basil or parsley, if desired.

Step 11

Serve immediately with rustic bread or on its own.
