Instructions

  • 1.   👩‍🍳 Preparation (very detailed)
    1️⃣ 🔪🧅 Slice the onion
    Cut the onion into small dice so it cooks quickly in the sauce.
    2️⃣ 🫒🔥 Sauté
    Heat 15 g of olive oil in a skillet.
    Add the onion and sauté for 3 minutes until it becomes translucent.
    3️⃣ 🔪🫑 Add the bell pepper
    Add the bell pepper diced.
    Sauté for 3 minutes: it should start to soften.
    4️⃣ 🧄✨ Flavor
    Add the minced garlic and mix for 30 seconds (without burning).
    5️⃣ 🌶️ Add the spices
    Add paprika + cumin + red pepper flakes.
    Mix for 20 seconds to awaken the flavors.
    6️⃣ 🍅🌀 Add the tomatoes
    Pour 400 g of crushed tomatoes.
    Season with salt, pepper, then let simmer for 7-8 minutes over medium heat: the sauce should thicken.
    7️⃣ 🥄🥚 Form the nests
    With a spoon, make 2 small holes in the sauce.
    8️⃣ 🍳 Cook the eggs
    Crack an egg into each hole.
    Cover and cook for 4-6 minutes: whites set, yolks still runny (adjust to your taste).
    9️⃣ 🌿🌶️ Finish and serve
    Sprinkle with coriander, add a little pepper and a pinch of red pepper if you like.

Notes & Suggestions

  • ⚡ Tip to make the recipe easier
    🍅 Use a pre-made tomato sauce (jar): just add the eggs and it's ready even faster.
    🔁 Ingredient swap
    🫑 Bell pepper → zucchini: replace with 120 g of zucchini diced (simmer for an additional 2 minutes).
    🔥 Cooking tip
    🍳 For perfect eggs: turn off the heat 1 minute before the desired doneness and let it sit covered — the residual heat will gently finish cooking without hardening the yolk.
