Ingredients
- 4 large tomatoes, roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1 red pepper, sliced
- 1 green pepper, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp chilli powder
- 4 eggs

Method
- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan with a lid over medium heat. Add the onion and both peppers and cook for 8-10 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the garlic, cumin, paprika, chilli powder and salt and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the tomatoes, stir well and simmer gently for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have broken down into a thick sauce. Taste and adjust the salt and heat.
- Make 4 small wells in the sauce with the back of a spoon and crack an egg into each.
- Cover the pan and cook gently for 5-8 minutes, until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still soft.
- Scatter with parsley or coriander if using and serve straight from the pan with crusty bread.
