Instructions

  1. Heat a dash of olive oil in a pan to medium temperature and sweat the onions in it until translucent. Now add the peppers and let them sweat for about 5 minutes. Then add the garlic, chilli pepper and cumin and fry for 2 minutes. Add the roughly diced tomatoes with a pinch of sugar and season with salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes.
  2. Then use a spoon to make four hollows in the tomato mixture and beat the egg in each hollow. Poach the eggs with the lid closed for about 6-8 minutes. The egg white should be firm and the yolk a little runny.
  3. Sprinkle with coriander and spring onions on the plate as desired and serve with bread or baguette.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
