Method
- 01
Cook down the onion and peppers
Heat the rapeseed oil in a wide pan over medium heat. Add the red onion and both peppers, then cook for 8–10 minutes until softened.
- 02
Bloom the garlic and spices
Stir in the garlic, cumin seeds, crushed coriander seeds and smoked paprika. Cook for 1 minute.
- 03
Fold in tomatoes and spinach
Tip in the cherry tomatoes, spinach and 100 ml water. Fold the spinach through until it wilts.
- 04
Let the sauce thicken uncovered
Leave the pan uncovered and simmer the sauce for 10 minutes, then season to taste.
- 05
Shape four wells for the eggs
Press four wells into the sauce and crack one egg into each space.
- 06
Set the eggs beneath a cover
Cover with a lid or foil and cook gently for 8–10 minutes, until the eggs are just set.
- 07
Scatter over dill and coriander
Uncover the pan and scatter over the roughly chopped coriander and dill.
Check the sauce, then the whites
At the end of the uncovered simmer, look across the surface before making the wells. Any watery patches need to cook away first.
Check from 8 minutes: the whites should look opaque and should not flow when the pan is moved. If they still move, replace the cover and continue towards 10 minutes.
