Ingredients
- 20 ml (1 tbsp) olive oil
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 red capsicum (pepper), finely diced
- 2 long chillies, finely diced
- 2 tbsp tomato paste (concentrated purée)
- 1 tsp sweet paprika
- 1 tsp smoky paprika
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 425 g (1 lb) tin diced or crushed tomatoes
- ½ tsp brown sugar
- 500 g (about ½ a bunch) kale, stalks removed and finely sliced
- 6 eggs
- 1 small handful parsley sprigs
- fresh crusty bread, to serve
Instructions
Heat the oil in a medium heavy-based frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, capsicum and chilli. Cook for 3–5 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelised.
Add the tomato paste, paprika and cumin and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the tomato and sugar, and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 15–20 minutes.
Add the kale and stir through the tomato sauce. Crack the eggs one by one into the tomato mixture in the pan.
Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked the way you like. Scatter over the parsley, season with salt and pepper, and serve with fresh crusty bread.
