Grilled eggs with curd cheese Calories

No, the egg-and-cheese mixture for grilled eggs with curd cheese is too loose for an open barbecue grate and can drip through. Use a grill-safe skillet or a small heatproof dish instead.

Grilled eggs with curd cheese use fresh, mild curd cheese; the name refers to Turkish lor-style cheese, not necessarily cottage cheese or ricotta. If the cheese is wet, drain it first so it does not make the eggs watery.

To stop grilled eggs with curd cheese sticking, preheat the pan and coat it lightly with oil before adding the mixture. Let the bottom set before moving or lifting the eggs, especially if you want to serve them in one piece.
