Ingredients for Feta, spinach, and basil omelette muffins
cooking spray or sunflower oil, for greasing
8 free-range eggs
8 sun-dried tomatoes, drained well, roughly chopped
large handful baby spinach, roughly chopped (about 30 g)
good pinch freshly grated nutmeg
120 g feta cheese, roughly broken into bite-sized pieces
a few fresh basil leaves
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
30 g rocket, watercress, or mixed salad leaves
45 ml extra-virgin olive oil
15 ml balsamic vinegar
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
How to make Feta, spinach, and basil omelette muffins
Preheat the oven to 160°C (fan) or 180°C (conventional). Grease 8 holes of a muffin tin with spray oil or sunflower oil and set aside.
Crack the eggs into a large jug, then add the chopped tomato, spinach, nutmeg, a pinch of salt (keeping in mind the saltiness of the feta), and pepper. Whisk together until well combined.
Pour the mixture evenly into the 8 muffin holes, then sprinkle the feta cheese over the top.
Bake in the oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the muffins have risen slightly, are firm to the touch, and lightly golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
Place the salad leaves on a large serving plate. In a small bowl or mug, whisk together the oil and vinegar with a little salt and pepper, then pour over the leaves.
Using a small, sharp knife, loosen the edges of each muffin from the tin and carefully pop them out.
Arrange the muffins on top of the salad leaves. Tear the basil leaves and scatter them over the muffins, then serve.
