Strapatsada

Strapatsada, also known as kagianas or melemeni, is a cherished Greek dish that's both economical and easy to prepare. Its inexpensive ingredients make it a staple for many, and it can be enjoyed either hot or cold, offering versatility for lunch or a light snack.

To make strapatsada, start by cooking chopped or pureed tomatoes in a frying pan with olive oil and a pinch of pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer until it thickens into a rich sauce. Next, pour in beaten eggs and stir continuously until they’re fully cooked. For an added burst of flavor, crumble in some feta cheese just before taking it off the heat. Season the dish with oregano, thyme, or any other dried herbs you prefer.

This dish is particularly popular during the summer months when fresh tomatoes are at their finest. Give it a try and savor a little taste of Greece!
