A delightful dish combining spiced tomatoes, poached eggs, and creamy feta, perfect for any meal of the day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh herbs (parsley or cilantro) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic, paprika, and cumin; let cook for another minute.
  4. Pour in the crushed tomatoes and season generously with salt and pepper. Allow it to simmer for 10-15 minutes until thickened to your liking.
  5. Create small wells in the sauce and crack one egg into each well. Cover the skillet and let the eggs cook until just set but the yolks remain runny—about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

Best served hot with crusty bread or pita. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
