Video
Ingredients
- 1 yellow onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp fresh chilli, optional, diced
- 1 large tomato, chopped
- 2 small red pepper, chopped
- 400 g chopped tomatoes, (from a can, I used Mutti)
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp coriander
- salt, pepper,, to taste
- 4 eggs
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat, using 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Sauté the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the spices: cumin, paprika, and a pinch of chili flakes if desired, and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in crushed tomatoes (or fresh chopped tomatoes) and season with salt and pepper. Let it simmer for 10 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
- Make small wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each. If your sauce is very thick, add a splash of water before cracking in the eggs. This helps create a bit of steam so the eggs cook evenly without drying out.
- Cover the pan and cook until the egg whites are set, leaving the yolks slightly runny, about 5-8 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with crusty bread.
