Step by step

Preparation steps

Cook the peppers

Slice the long green peppers into rings and cook them in olive oil over medium heat for three minutes, until the edges just colour.

Add the tomato

Grate the tomatoes into the pan and cook for five to six minutes, until the liquid has gone and the oil rises to the surface.

Season

Add salt and pepper flakes now, before the eggs, so the spices open up in the sauce.

Add the eggs

Lower the heat, crack the eggs into the pan and fold them through the sauce three or four times; take the pan off the heat while the whites are just short of set.

Serve

Let the pan stand for a minute, scatter parsley over the top and serve hot with bread.

Time's up! Enjoy your meal.
