Notes
If you are looking for a healthier alternative to omelets for breakfast, this is the right
recipe for both your eyes and your stomach!
The egg is a high quality protein source that contains all the amino acids that our body
needs. It contains vitamins B2, B5 and B12, phosphorus, folate and selenium. In addition
to the egg, pastrami has high protein content, as well and substantial amount of protein
that you have in the morning will minimize the need to eat the next meal. Half of the
muffins obtained from this recipe corresponds to one serving that contains 315 kcal and
25 g of protein.
Please note: You can replace pastrami with bacon or jamon.

Cooking instructions

1. Chop the potatoes in the form of coarse circles
2. Fry both sides of the potato circles in a non-stick frying pan with very little oil (you
can use a fat-free frying machine instead of frying pan)
3. While the potatoes are being fried, sautee finely chopped green peppers in another
non-stick pan with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and leave to cool.
4. Mix the curd cheese, finely chopped parsley and green peppers.
5. Cover two steel cooking rings with baking paper. You can use them without covering
with baking paper as well but pastrami might stick.
6. Place the fried potatoes on the bottom of the steel rings so that they cover the base
completely (if you do not have egg cooking rings, you can use a muffin or cupcake cup
or a non-stick ramekin)
7. Place the pastrami on the inner surface of the rings using 3 slices for each serving.
8. Fill the remaining area with the curd cheese mixture.
9. Break the egg on top.
10. Cook in the oven preheated to 200 degrees until the egg whites are cooked.
11. Finely chop the green leaves of the scallions and sprinkle atop before serving.
