• 1. Cut off the base of each tomato & grate them until all that's left is the tomato skin. Reserve the grated tomatoes and discard the skins. (You can also finely chop the tomatoes if you don't have a grater)
• 2. Place a skillet over medium heat & saute the onion & garlic until they are translucent.
• 3. Add the grated tomatoes & season with thyme & chili flakes (if using) also add the oregano, paprika & pepper. If your tomatoes are not ripe enough, add a pinch of sugar. Also if using feta cheese be careful with the slat. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, until juices have mostly evaporated.
• 4. Pour beaten eggs and mix with a wooden spoon for 1 minute, until eggs start to cook. As soon as they start to set, remove from heat.

STRAPATSADA (Στραπατσάδα)

Steps:

• Wash your tomatoes and on the bottom make an "X" with a sharp pairing knife, piercing through the skin.

• In a small skillet over medium heat saute the chopped onion in the olive oil.

GREEK SALAD OMELETTE

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. Whisk the eggs in a large bowl with the chopped parsley, pepper and salt, if you want. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan, then fry the onion wedges over a high heat for about 4 mins until they start to brown around the edges. Throw in the tomatoes and olives and cook for 1-2 mins until the tomatoes begin to soften.
• Turn the heat down to medium and pour in the eggs. Cook the eggs in the pan, stirring them as they begin to set, until half cooked, but still runny in places - about 2 mins. Scatter over the feta, then place the pan under the grill for 5-6 mins until omelette is puffed up and golden. Cut into wedges and serve straight from the pan.

MY BIG FAT GREEK OMELET

Steps:

• Heat a 12-inch non-stick skillet over low heat. (Use a 10-inch skillet if you halve the recipe to serve 2 instead of 4.) Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix tomatoes, 1/2 tsp. oregano, 1/4 tsp. salt, and pepper to taste. Stir in feta.
• In a medium bowl, whisk eggs together, then stir in spinach, 1/2 tsp. oregano, 1/4 tsp. salt, and pepper to taste. A few minutes before cooking omelet, add oil to the pan, and increase heat to medium-high. Heat until wisps of smoke start to rise from the pan. Add the egg mixture to the skillet. Using a plastic or wooden spatula to push back the eggs that have set, tilt the pan and let the uncooked egg mixture run onto the empty portion of the pan. Continue pushing back cooked eggs, tilting the pan and letting uncooked egg mixture flow onto the empty portion of the pan until omelet is moist but fully cooked, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low; pour the tomato mixture over half of the omelet. Using a slotted, flat spatula or turner, carefully fold the untopped half over the filling. Use the turner to slide the omelet onto a cutting board. Let stand a minute or two for the filling to warm.
• Cut the omelet into 4 wedges and serve immediately.
