Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Eggs
- 3 medium Tomatoes
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoons Red chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Wash the tomatoes and dice them into small cubes. Set aside.
Finely chop the garlic cloves and parsley. Keep them separate.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
When the oil is hot, add the chopped garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices, creating a thick sauce.
Season the tomato mixture with salt, black pepper, and sugar. If using chili flakes, add them at this stage for heat.
Reduce the heat to low and make four small wells in the tomato mixture using a spoon.
Crack an egg into each well, being careful to keep the yolks intact.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the egg whites are fully set but the yolks remain runny, about 3-5 minutes. Cook for longer if firmer yolks are preferred.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve immediately with crusty bread, over rice, or as is. Enjoy!
