Soft Herb & Feta Scrambled Eggs
Share
Eggs, but make them green. These scrambled eggs are soft, creamy, and flecked with fresh herbs and salty feta. They feel like something you'd get at a posh café, but they take about five minutes and require zero skill. Serve on sourdough for extra gut points.
Ingredients (Serves 1):
- 2 eggs
- 1 tbsp milk or water
- A small knob of butter
- A handful of soft herbs (parsley, dill, chives—whatever you have)
- 30g feta cheese, crumbled
- Salt and pepper
- 1 thick slice of sourdough bread
Method:
- Whisk the eggs with the milk and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Melt the butter in a small non-stick pan over low heat. Low is key.
- Pour in the eggs. Let them sit for 20 seconds, then gently push around the pan, creating soft curds.
- When the eggs are almost set but still slightly runny, scatter over the herbs and crumbled feta. Fold gently.
- Remove from heat while still soft—they'll finish cooking from residual heat.
- Toast the sourdough. Pile the eggs on top. Eat immediately.
Why it's gut-friendly: Eggs are a brilliant source of protein and choline. Fresh herbs add antioxidants and gentle digestive support. Feta is a fermented cheese, providing probiotics. Sourdough is easier to digest than regular bread.
