11.3 million people watched Grace Elkus’s (@graceelkus) feta fried eggs video on TikTok – and the easy, four-ingredient recipe, served in a wrap, now has hundreds of copycats. One of our staffers tested the trend and found it to be the perfect loadshedding lunch – if you’ve got a camping stove, that is!

Ingredients

Method
  • oil, for frying
  • 1–2 discs feta (Woolies’ Greek barrel-aged sheep-and-goat’s milk feta melts beautifully)
  • 2 free-range eggs
  • 1 Woolworths white tortilla wrap, toasted
  • sauce of your choice, for serving
  • fresh coriander, basil or spring onions, serving
@wwtaste Replying to @Sarah Koopman Can confirm. The fried feta eggs trend absolutely SLAPS with @Woolworths SA onion chilli crunch. #friedfetaeggs #tiktokthatshau #easyrecipes ♬ Summer day - TimTaj

1. Heat a little oil in a non-stick pan over a low heat, then crumble in the feta. Allow to melt and bubble.

2. Crack in the eggs and fry. Pour over the sauce of your choice. If you like your yolk set, cover with a lid.

3. Toast the wrap in a dry frying pan.

4. Top the wrap with the feta fried egg – the feta should adhere to the egg to form a crunchy “skirt”. Garnish with the herbs and season.

Cook's note: When it comes to sauces for serving, our recommendations include: Woolworths onion chilli crunch, Peppadew chutney, chilli oil, or pesto.
