Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 medium onion
  • ½ tablespoon garlic
  • 6-7 large plum tomatoes ref note 1
  • 2 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 roasted red bell pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 4-5 eggs
  • cup feta

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large skillet. Saute onion and garlic until softened.
  • Add tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes have softened and the mixture comes together. If using fresh tomatoes, it will take a little longer to come together. Add a pinch of salt for the tomatoes to cook faster.
  • To the mixture, add roasted red pepper, tomato paste, and spices. Saute for another 1 minute.
  • Stir in 1/3 cup water(add more or less, to get the desired consistency).
  • Using a spatula make small 4-5 wells in the mixture. Break eggs in each well. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs cook until the desired doneness.
  • Sprinkle with crumbed feta and cilantro leaves.
