Ingredients
Scale
- 2 zucchini (14 ounces/400g)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated, divided
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 eggs
Instructions
- Wash zucchini and create spaghetti noodles using a spiralizer. Alternatively, slice into thin ribbons with a vegetable peeler.
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini and sauté for a minute to soften.
- Sprinkle over 1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
- Divide the zucchini mixture into four portions, shaping each into a round fritter in the skillet. Create a small well in the center of each fritter, and crack an egg into each well.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still runny.
- Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle over the remaining Parmesan. Serve immediately.
