Instructions

  1. Dice the onion finely and slice the chilli into thin rings.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the onion and chilli for 5 minutes over medium heat.
  3. Add the diced tomatoes and let them break down for 5 to 7 minutes until you have a sauce.
  4. Crack the eggs into a bowl, lightly beat them with the salt, pepper and cumin, then pour them into the pan.
  5. Stir gently with a spatula until the eggs are just set but still soft, about 3 minutes.
  6. Serve straight away, piping hot, with bread.

Variations and tips

Spring onion version. Replace the onion with 3 sliced spring onions for a fresher flavour.
