Eggs in purgatory
by David
Very tasty dish that is packed full of flavour
Instructions
Start in a cold large pan that has a lid
Add the olive oil, garlic (optional), and chilli flakes
Sauté for 5 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally
Turn heat to medium-high
Add the onions and continue to stir and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
Add the tin of tomatoes
Season with salt
Add chopped parsley and basil
Turn to medium-low heat until it reaches a simmer
Simmer for 12-14 minutes.
Make a well in the sauce
If the well holds for 30-40 seconds, the sauce has ready for the eggs
If it doesn't hold then continue cooking for a few more minutes
Add eggs into the gaps
Cover and cook for 2-5 minutes
Serve with warm bread / ciabatta
