Spicy Baked Eggs

Baked EggsThere are few things that’ll get you out of bed after a long week. The prospect of hot, runny, deep orange yolked eggs (we hope) is one of them.

Serves: 4

Preparation Time: 10 mins

Cooking Time: 20 mins

What You’ll Need:

  • 1 red onion
  • 1 red pepper
  • 2 cans of chopped or peeled tomatoes
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 clove of garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 red or green chilli deseeded and finely chopped, or 1/2 tsp chilli flakes
  • Small bunch of coriander, chopped
  • 1 tsp sugar

Suitable for

  • Vegetarians
  • Gluten free
  • Dairy Free

What To Do:

  • Heat the oil on medium heat in a frying pan and add the onions, chilli, garlic and half the coriander. Fry gently until softened.
  • Add the tomatoes, (add fresh ones in here if using) with the sugar and leave on a low heat for about 10 minutes until thickened.
  • Pour the sauce into a baking dish (or two individual ones) and make a well for the eggs with the back of a big spoon.
  • Crack the eggs into the wells and place in a hot oven at 180C for 5 – 10 minutes, until the eggs are cooked to how you like them.
  • Top with the rest of the coriander, salt and black pepper to taste. Serve with thick slices of toast to soak up all the goodness.

Tip: throw in a few fresh cherry tomatoes if they need using up, also some diced chorizo wouldn’t go a miss.
