Steps

1 hour

1

Heat a large pan over medium heat and add about 3 tablespoon of olive oil. When the oil shimmers in the light, it's ready.
2

Add the onions, which should become nice and translucent. Stir them occasionally.
3

Add chopped bell pepper.
4

Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until everything is soft.
5

If desired, add more finely chopped veggies.
6

Add 1 tsp of paprika, 1 tsp of chilli powder, and 2 tsp of ground cumin. Mix everything well.
7

Add garlic and stir for a few minutes.
8

Add peeled tomatoes and break them down.
9

Once the mixture starts boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer.
10

When the mixture reaches the desired consistency, add 1/2 tsp of salt and 1/2 tsp of pepper.
11

Cook for another 15-20 minutes until it's noticeably thicker.
12

Taste the sauce and add more salt or pepper if needed.
13

Add coriander cloves and mix well.
14

Create a small depression in the sauce and crack an egg into it. Repeat this for all the eggs.
15

The goal is to have soft, runny yolks and firm whites.
16

Cover the pan and cook for 10-12 minutes on a simmer. Sprinkle some coriander on top.

The dish is done.
