Hello lovely people of YouTube and welcome to my kitchen once again! Today, I have wonderful news for you because we will make Greek-way scrambled eggs, called Strapatsada or Kayiana! It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, a quick snack, or even for a meal! Serve it with some freshly baked bread and everyone will be impressed! So, first things first. Pan, over heat, and let it become extremely hot before you add all the other ingredients. We need to chop an onion… Perfect! And thinly slice one clove of garlic. Add three tablespoons of extra virgin Greek olive oil into the pan, onion and garlic. Now, take a wooden spoon and start caramelizing the onion and the garlic. During this time, take a cheese grater and grate two very ripe tomatoes. As you can see, I’m not grating the skin, just the flesh because it’s a ten-minute recipe so we don’t want the skin in this recipe… we need it to be very velvety. So, avoid to grate the skin. Perfect! Now, discard the skin and, at this point, if you will not add any feta cheese, you can season the onion and the garlic. I will add some feta cheese so I’m adding no salt because the feta cheese is quite salty and now, it’s time to deglaze the pan. We will deglaze the pan with one spoonful of sugar and balsamic vinegar. Perfection! Look at this! Wait for a minute, until the vinegar is evaporated and when you have this gluey texture on the pan, add the tomato. Cumin and paprika… a little bit of thyme… perfect! And if you like, you can add any herbs like basil, thyme, rosemary, or even mint… but just thyme is enough. And cook the mixture for about 6-8 minutes until most of the liquid is evaporated. When the tomato is almost ready, it’s time to crack the eggs. Four eggs are enough for four persons. You just crack them, add some pepper. If you want the mixture to be salty, you can add some salt here but I will add the feta cheese… that’s why I’m not adding it now. A little bit of thyme… perfect! Mix a little bit and add the egg mixture inside. Mix a little bit and when the eggs start forming inside the pan, like this, remove the pan from the heat and let it sit here for one minute… until you create a nice platter to serve the eggs! We need a chopping board, a little bit of rocket, like this… some cherry tomatoes… some grilled bread, like this… and now, it’s time to add a little bit of umami inside these lovely eggs. Feta cheese… a bit of pepper… mix… Oh, my God! This is heaven! And trust me, those two ingredients at the start, the vinegar and the sugar, will make a huge difference because they actually give a very sour and sweet taste to the eggs. And now, it’s time to call some friends to share this lovely recipe. Call them, tell them today we will eat Greek-way scrambled eggs the best way! And for the end, a little bit of extra virgin Greek olive oil and voila! It’s ready! And now, it’s time to taste the best scrambled eggs all over the world! Oh, my God! I love this recipe and I’m sure that you will love it, too! You need only four eggs, two tomatoes, and lots of love… And of course, extra virgin Greek olive oil! Please, share this lovely recipe with your friends and please, subscribe to my channel! Make comments underneath the video, and see you next time! Bye bye, yia sas!
