Chilli Boiled Eggs With Cheats 'Whipped' Feta and Toast

If you have leftover feta, don’t worry! Feta keeps well in the freezer for later use. Simply transfer any unused feta to an airtight container and pop it in the freezer. When you’re ready to use it again, defrost it in the microwave at 15-30 second intervals until softened. It’s perfect for adding to salads, pastas, or even more whipped feta recipes!

If you’re dairy-free, you can easily swap feta with a plant-based alternative. Look for dairy-free feta varieties available at most health food stores or supermarkets. Alternatively, you can use tofu for a similar texture—simply crumble it and season with a little lemon juice, olive oil, and salt to give it that tangy flavour.

Make sure you’re using fresh eggs. Otherwise, to make peeling easier, once your eggs are boiled, transfer them to an ice bath or a bowl of cold water for several minutes to stop the cooking process and help loosen the shell. Gently tap the egg on a hard surface and roll it back and forth to crack the shell, then peel under cold running water to make it easier.
