Equipment

  • 1 skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 white onion diced
  • 1 red pepper diced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 tsp. chilli powder
  • 1 tsp. cumin
  • 1 tsp. smoked paprika plus extra for garnishing
  • pinch cayenne pepper optional
  • pinch sugar
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cans tomatoes chopped
  • 2 tbsp. tomato puree
  • 3 cups baby spinach fresh
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 tbsp. cilantro fresh
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese

Instructions

  • Heat some olive oil in a large skillet and sauté the onion and pepper for 4-5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and spices and sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the tomato puree, chopped tomatoes, sugar, salt and pepper and bring to a low simmer. Once the mixture is simmering, add the spinach and simmer until the spinach has wilted and is evenly distributed.
  • Crack the eggs around the pan, I like to put 1 in the middle and 4 around the outside to give each of them room. Cover the pan and cook for 5-6 minutes for a runny yolk. Increase to 8-10 minutes if you like your yolk firmer.
  • Crumble over the feta cheese, fresh cilantro, and a pinch of smoked paprika just before serving. Serve immediately.
