CREAMY ONE-POT SPINACH AND EGG BREAKFAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a 9-inch (23 cm) cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and ½ teaspoon of salt. Cook for 6-8 minutes, until the onions are softened and translucent.
• Add the garlic, red pepper flakes, and nutmeg and cook for 2 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant.
• Sprinkle the flour into the pan and mix well to incorporate it into the butter and remove any clumps. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the flour is cooked and beginning to turn light brown in color.
• Pour in the vegetable stock and heavy cream and stir well to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and cook the cheese until it melts, stirring continuously, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the lemon juice and spinach. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Using a fine-mesh sieve, strain each egg to remove the outer egg white, the thinner layer of the egg white that tends to spread when an egg is cracked into a pan. Add each egg to its own small bowl.
• Using a ¼ cup (30 g) measure, create 4 divots in the spinach mixture and carefully pour a strained egg into each space. Sprinkle each egg with the pepper and a pinch of Parmesan.
• Return the pan to medium heat and cover. Cook for 5 minutes, until the egg whites are starting to set.
• Meanwhile, turn the broiler to high. Remove the lid from the pan and broil for 2-3 minutes to cook off any excess moisture that may have accumulated and to brown the cheese.
• Remove the pan from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving with toast.
• Enjoy!
