Recipe type: Main Dish
Cuisine: Middle Eastern
Serves: 3-4 servings
Ingredients
2-3 teaspoons olive oil
½ of a large white or yellow onion
1 cup of diced sweet peppers
salt & pepper
2 tablespoons cumin
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 large can of plum tomatoes whole, diced or crushed
5 eggs
feta cheese
Instructions
In a medium to large oven safe sauté pan over medium-high heat, add your olive oil and let it heat until it starts to shimmer.
Add your diced onion & peppers and let cook for 2-3 minutes stirring occasionally.
Turn down the heat to medium. Add the cumin, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper & tomato paste. Cook for another 4-5 minutes stirring occasionally.
Add the tomatoes. If they are whole tomatoes crush them with the back of your spoon or with a potato masher. Let simmer for 8-10 minutes. Again, stirring occasionally.
Remove pan from the heat and add 5-6 eggs. Place in a 375˚ oven for 7-10 minutes or until the eggs are set to your desired taste. Traditionally they are pretty soft, but it's up to you.
Top with feta and serve with a nice loaf of bread or pita.
