Ground Beef and Eggs
Recipe from Yumna | Feel Good Foodie · original post · full recipe on feelgoodfoodie.net
A quick one-skillet breakfast of lean ground beef cooked with Mediterranean spices and softly folded eggs.
Ingredients
- olive oil30 ml
- garlic clove — minced1 ea
- lean ground beef115 g
- Lebanese seven spice1 tsp
- ground cinnamon — ½ tsp1.3 g
- paprika — ½ tsp1.3 g
- salt — ½ tsp3 g
- black pepper0.5 tsp
- large eggs8 ea
- fresh parsley — chopped, for serving4 g
Method
- Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef, seven spice, cinnamon, paprika, salt and black pepper and cook until browned, about 3 minutes.
- Crack the eggs on top of the beef and lower the heat to medium. Use a spatula to lightly fold the eggs until almost cooked through, with a little liquid egg remaining, about 5 minutes. Don't over-mix, so the beef and eggs stay somewhat separate.
- Carefully transfer to a wide round dish, sprinkle the parsley on top and serve with Lebanese pita bread.
