Zucchini with eggs (Kousa w bayd)
Lebanese breakfast; subtly spiced zucchini with eggs
Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 2
Ingredients
- 1 small zucchini
- 3 free range eggs
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- Tiny pinch 7 spice
- Sprinkle of salt
- Sprinkle of paprika
- Mild olive oil
Instructions
-
In a non stick pan, add a good drizzle (2-3 tbsp) and heat the oil on medium
-
Chop the zucchini on the finer side into roughly 5mm cubes. Transfer to the pan, add the black pepper, 7 spice and sprinkle a little salt. Sauté for around ten minutes until done (add a lid to help steam along)
-
As the zucchini is cooking, crack 3 eggs into a bowl and again season a little with a small sprinkle of salt
-
Taste one zucchini cube to see if it is done and then add the eggs (adding a small drizzle of mild olive oil if necessary) and scramble to your preference. I like to cook them for about 3-5 minutes on high heat.

Transfer to a plate and sprinkle a tiny bit of paprika, serve with fresh flatbreads.
