Pisto con huevos

A vegetarian dish from the Spanish kitchen.

Ingredients

  • 2 tblsp Olive Oil
  • 2 Onion
  • 4 Chopped Garlic Clove
  • 5 Mixed peppers
  • 1 teaspoon Oregano
  • Sprigs of fresh Thyme
  • 4 leaves Bay Leaves
  • 2 chopped Courgettes
  • 1 chopped Aubergine
  • 4 large Tomato
  • 4 large Egg
  • Handful Parsley

Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish or a cast-iron skillet over a low heat. Add the onions and a sprinkle of salt, cover and cook gently for 15 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 mins.
  2. Next, throw in the peppers and cook over a medium heat, covered, for about 5 mins, stirring every so often, until the peppers are just tender.
  3. Mix in the oregano, thyme, bay leaves, some black pepper and a little salt, if needed. Tip in the courgettes and aubergine, combine thoroughly, and cook over a medium heat, covered, for 10 mins. Stir in the tomatoes, cover and cook for 20 mins, stirring occasionally.
  4. Carefully crack the eggs over the pisto – try not to break the yolks. Cook in the sauce on a medium heat for 5-6 mins until the eggs are cooked through but still a little soft, then scatter with parsley before serving
