Ingredients

  • 300g (purple sprouting) broccoli
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tbsp butter or ghee
  • 1 bunch spring onions, finely sliced
  • 1 fat clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp berbere / harissa / garam masala / your favourite spice mix
  • chili flakes or try Pul Biber or Urfa chili or fresh chopped chili
  • 1/2 a lemon
  • 100g feta, crumbled
  • fresh coriander or herbs

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 220C. In a large wide frying pan (with an oven proof handle), add the broccoli to the pan with about 4 tbsp of boiling water. Put the lid on and let it steam for about 2 minutes or until the liquid has been absorbed.

Step 2

Take off the lid, push the broccoli to the side of the pan to clear a bit of space, add the butter/ghee to the empty space and fry the garlic, spring onions and spice mix for 45 seconds or until the garlic is softened but not brown.

Step 3

Add a little sea salt and pepper, then stir everything together to coat the broccoli. Make 4 gaps (as best you can) and crack the eggs into each gap.

Step 4

Sprinkle over salt and then pop the pan in the oven for about 3-5 minutes until the whites have just set and the yolk is still runny ( OR put the lid back on for a final 3-5 minutes or until the whites have set).

Step 5

Then remove the pan from the oven, scatter over the feta and squeeze some lemon juice onto the broccoli. Sprinkle over some chili and herbs to finish.
