How to make it
- The first step is to make the tomato sauce. Heat a little olive oil in a pan and gently fry the onions until they begin to soften. then add tomatoes, tomato puree, salt, pepper, garlic, sugar and chilli flakes and white wine vinegar. Let this cook on a fairly high heat so that the tomatoes cook down (if i'm in a rush I find a potato masher helps things along). Then add a little water and simmer on a low-ish heat until the tomato sauce has a nice consistency.
- While the sauce is reducing, put the aubergine and red pepper on a baking tray with a good slug of olive oil, salt, pepper and crushed garlic. Bake at around 200 degrees centigrade for around 20 mins or until the vegetables are golden.
- Combine tomato sauce and roast vegetables in an oven dish. Make four wells in the mixture and crack one of the four eggs into each well. Season the eggs with pepper. Scatter torn basil leaves over the surface and top with a mixture of parmesan and cheddar. Bake in the oven at around 200 degrees centigrade until the cheese is golden and the eggs just set.
- Serve with plenty of crusty bread
- Enjoy!
