Neapolitan Breakfast Bomb

Today's dish is made with some typical Neapolitan ingredients. The Neapolitan cuisine was influenced by the different cultures that controlled Naples. Some ingredients used in this recipe are very typical for the region. We're going to make a fresh, raw zucchini salad which works extremely well with the hearty, smokey flavour of the scamorza and the eggs. 
This is some excellent hangover food : quick, easy and greasy. ( Your liver probably won't think the same about it.)

Some ingredients

Ingredients

- 4 eggs
- scamorza ( smoked mozzarella, you can find this at an Italian delicacy store )
- fresh basil
- 1/2 zucchini
- ciabatta bread
- seasalt
- black pepper
- juice from 1 lime
- finely chopped fresh parsley
- extra virgin olive oil



Preparation

Finely shred the zucchini ( I used a cheese grater ), and toss it in a bowl together with the lime juice, parsley and season with salt and pepper and set aside.
Whisk the eggs, season with salt and pepper. Finely slice the basil ( julienne ). Heat up a tsp of oil in a non-stick pan and add half of the eggs and half of the basil. When the omelet is done, do the same with the rest of the eggs and basil. 
Grill the ciabatta until crispy. Cut it in half. Cover the bottom half of the ciabatta with the zucchini salad, add the basil omelettes, and end with the scamorza.
