Method

  1. Grate the courgettes into a bowl. Reserve a few mint leaves, then roughly chop and add the rest to the courgettes. Season well. Finely chop the onion, then stir in well.
  2. Heat a large frying pan with a little olive oil and add the courgette, mint and onion mixture. Fry for 5 minutes until softened.
  3. Heat the grill to high. Beat the eggs in a bowl with the cayenne pepper and a little seasoning. Crumble the feta, then stir about two-thirds into the eggs. Pour into the pan, letting the egg flow evenly through the courgette mixture. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the egg begins to just set on the base, then put under the hot grill and cook until just cooked through and golden.
