Ingredients
- 2 aubergines
- 6 medium tomatoes on the vine
- 1 onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- ¼ cup vegetarian oil
- 1 red bell pepper
- 3 eggs
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon dried herbs
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ¼ cup water
Instructions
- Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a large pan and heat it up.
- Chop the aubergines leaving the skin on, and add half of them to the pan.
- Fry until golden, stirring occasionally.
- Remove them from the pan, add more oil, and fry the remaining aubergines.
- When they are cooked, remove them from the pan and set aside.
- Add the rest of the oil to the pan, the onion chopped finely, and fry it on a medium heat until golden.
- Add the red pepper cut julienne, and cook it for 3-4 minutes so that it can soften a bit.
- In go the tomatoes chopped into quarters, peeled and chopped garlic, salt, pepper, herbs and paprika.
- Give everything a good stir, and leave them to cook until the tomatoes are mushy - it can take up to 5 minutes.
- Add the water, place the lid on, and leave it to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Return the aubergines to the pan, mix well, then make 3 nests into the sauce, and crack the eggs in.
- Place a lid on, and cook until the egg whites are cooked, but the yolks are still runny.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and extra black pepper if you wish, and serve immediately.
Notes
- I chose to fry the aubergines, but you can also baked them - simply chop them the same way, transfer to a roasting pan, drizzle some oil over, and leave them to bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
- Then just start making the sauce with frying the onions, and follow the exact same steps from here - this is a good option, but it's entirely up to you.
