Ingredients
Scale
- 3 eggs
- 2 tbsp Chili Oil (adjust to taste)
- 1 cup Grated Cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
- Salt and pepper (optional, to taste)
- Fresh chopped Spring Onions, Chives, or Parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the chili oil.
- Add the cheese: Once the chili oil starts to sizzle, sprinkle ¾ of the grated cheese evenly in the pan.
- Cook the eggs: Crack the eggs into the skillet over the cheese, making sure they are spaced apart. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the eggs. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the egg whites are fully set and the yolks are cooked to your preference.
- Serve: Turn off the heat and carefully slide the eggs onto a serving plate. Season with salt and pepper, if desired, and garnish with fresh herbs like spring onions, chives, or parsley. Serve immediately over toasted bread or rice for a complete meal.
Notes
- Adjust the chili oil to your preferred spice level.
