Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and chili flakes and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the capers, olives, and parsley and cook for another 2 minutes.
  2. Add the tomatoes and salt, and allow the mixture to come to a bubble. Remember - it needs to be hot enough to poach an egg in! Sizzle sizzle.
  3. When the sauce is at a rapid boil, crack in the eggs, sprinkle the Parmesan over them, and partially cover the pan with a lid. Let it simmer and bubble for 5 minutes, by which time the white should be set and the yolk still runny - keep an eye on it.
  4. When the eggs are cooked, remove the pan from heat and serve. Sprinkle with a little more Parmesan if desired, and serve with lots of bread for dunking! Enjoy.
