  3. Airfry at 180ºC for 3-4 minutes until browned and bubbly.

  4. Heat a little oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat.

  5. Crack in the eggs and fry for 2-3 minutes until the whites are just set and the yolks are still runny.

Key Ingredients

  • Deli Kitchen Persian Style Flatbreads: Perfectly baked for tearing and sharing, these provide a sturdy yet pillowy base for the melted cheese and eggs.

  • Mature Cheddar: Offers a sharp, bold flavor that stands up to the heat of the chilli.

  • Green Chilli: Adds a zesty, fresh spark. Remove the seeds if you prefer a milder morning.

  • Spring Onions: Provide a subtle, savory crunch that brightens the entire dish.

Serving Suggestions

  • Zesty Side: Serve with a few slices of avocado or a side of fresh salsa to balance the richness.

  • Bold Finish: Drizzle with a little sriracha or hot honey for an extra layer of sweetness and heat.

  • Cooling Touch: Add a dollop of Greek yogurt or silken tofu dip on the side.

Storage & Reheating

This flatbread is best enjoyed immediately while the cheese is gooey and the egg yolks are runny. If you have leftovers, store the cheesy flatbread in the fridge and reheat in the air fryer for 2 minutes to regain its crunch before topping with a fresh egg.
