Method

  1. Toss the onion in the lime juice and a pinch of sea salt. Set aside to pickle while you make the eggs.
  2. Toast the cumin seeds in a nonstick frying pan over a medium heat for 1-2 mins until fragrant. Set aside.
  3. Working in batches, if needed, drizzle a little oil onto the base of the frying pan set over a medium heat. Crumble in a quarter of the feta in a single layer and cook for 1-2 mins until evenly melted and sizzling. Crack an egg directly onto the feta and sprinkle with the chillies and cumin. Cook for 3-4 mins until the white is set, the yolk is runny and the feta is crisp and golden. Cover the pan with a lid if you prefer a more set yolk. Repeat to cook all 4 eggs, if working in batches.
  4. Warm the tortillas to pack instructions, then smash the avocado onto each one in an even layer using a fork. Top each with a crispy feta egg, the drained pickled onion, coriander and tomatoes and serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.
