• Pinch of salt Buy: Salt · ₺29.99

Preparation

1. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper until well combined.
2. If using, finely dice the tomato and bell pepper. Grate or slice your cheese.
3. Heat the Biryağ Sunflower Oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
4. Pour the whisked eggs into the hot pan. Let them cook for about 30 seconds until the edges start to set.
5. Gently place one piece of White Arabic Bread directly on top of the cooking eggs, pressing lightly so the egg adheres to the bread.
6. After another 30-60 seconds, carefully flip the bread and egg together so the egg side is now facing up.
7. Immediately sprinkle the cheese, diced tomato, and bell pepper (if using) over the cooked egg.
8. Fold one half of the White Arabic Bread over the filling to create a sandwich.
9. Continue to cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, pressing gently, until the cheese is melted and gooey, and the bread is golden brown and crispy.
10. Transfer to a plate, garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired, and enjoy your quick late-night snack!

Pro Tips

• For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of dried oregano or red pepper flakes to the eggs.
• Don't overcrowd the pan; make one toast at a time for best results.
• Any quick-melting cheese like mozzarella, kashkaval, or even a salty white cheese like feta would work wonderfully here.
• For an extra touch of flavor, you can add a tiny pinch of red pepper flakes with the tomatoes.
• Don't overcook the eggs! Keep them soft and moist for the best texture.
• For an extra flavor boost, sprinkle a tiny bit of dried oregano or za'atar before baking.
• If you don't have an oven, you can make these in a pan! Just toast the bread lightly, then add cheese and tomato, cover, and cook on low heat until the cheese melts.
• Any type of melting cheese works great here, like mozzarella, kashkaval, or even a mix!
• For extra creaminess, you can add a tiny bit of Icim Chef Cooking Cream Half Fat if you have it on hand!
• Don't overcook the eggs; they should be soft and moist, not dry.
