Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion finely diced
- 1 red bell pepper finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 28 ounces crushed tomatoes
- 6 egg
Garnish
- cilantro freshly chopped
- parsley freshly chopped
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once hot add the onion, bell pepper. Saute around 3-5 minutes or until the onion is clear.
- Stir in the garlic, paprika, cumin, and salt. Then add the crushed tomatoes and mix to combine. Reduce heat to low.
- Use the back of a spoon to create a hole, then crack an egg to fill the hole. Repeat with each egg. Then cover the pan and cook until the eggs reach your desired level of doneness.Cooking time can vary, but I find a minimum 3-5 minutes gives me an over easy egg, 6-8 is over medium, and 9-12 will make an over hard egg.
- Garnish the top with a generous amount of chopped cilantro and parsley and serve warm with pita or just dig in with a fork.
