Ingredients
- 1 onion or bunch of leeks sliced into half-moons
- 3 garlic cloves chopped
- 6 cups mixed greens and fresh herbs chopped into thin strips - kale, Swiss chard, Collard greens, spinach, beet greens, cilantro, dill, oregano
- ½ fresh jalapeno seeded and chopped, or 1-2 teaspoons of chilli flakes
- 100 ml yogurt or sour cream
- a pinch of nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon salt
- pepper
- 6 eggs
- 100 grams feta or fresh goat cheese
Instructions
- Saute onions until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, cook an additional minute. Add chopped greens and cook until leaves are wilted, about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add jalapeno or chilli flakes, cook an additional 5 minutes.
- Add yogurt, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Create 6 nests, and break the eggs in them, stirring the egg whites completely into the green mixture. Cook for an additional five minutes, or until eggs are done to your liking.
- Top with fresh feta or goat cheese (or both), and serve immediately.
