Instruções

1. Heat oil in a medium size cast iron skillet/stainless steel pan over medium high heat. Add garlic and onion, cook until onion is translucent. Add capsicum.

2. Add chorizo, cook until fragrant. Add canned tomatoes, (tomato paste + broth if adding), paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. Mix to combine well.

3. Lower stove to medium low and simmer for 5 minutes until just thickened enough to make indentations (don’t want dry sludge, needs to still be saucy).

4. Make indentations in the mixture and carefully crack the eggs in. Leave to cook until edges of whites are set. Sprinkle with parsley flakes and serve with crispy bread.
