Instructions
- Heat butter in a large frying pan over medium heat.
- Season the tomato's cut side with salt and pepper. Place the tomato, cut side down, in the frying pan.
- Crack the eggs straight into the same pan. For eggs sunny side up, leave the eggs to fry on one side. For eggs cooked over easy, flip the eggs after a few minutes and cook for another minute. For harder yolks, cook for a few more minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- To serve, place eggs, tomato and cheese on a plate. Sprinkle eggs and tomato with dried oregano for some extra color and flavor.
What to drink?
Serve with water and a cup of freshly brewed black coffee or a cup of tea.
Feel free to serve the cheese slightly warmed and melted. Just add the cubed cheese to the frying pan just before serving. Toss and stir with a wooden spoon until the outside is slightly melted.

Drink very little coffee eg 3 cups a week.
We would recommend heavy cream rather than milk as it has fewer carbs and more fat.
There is only half a tomato, so the possessive is correct. Place the cut side of the tomato (the tomato's cut side) down. It took me a minute too!
