Method

  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil in a wide pan and cook the onion for 5 minutes until soft, then stir in the garlic, ground cumin and paprika and cook for 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Add the potatoes and chopped tomatoes with 100ml water, cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.

  3. 3

    Make four small gaps in the sauce and crack in the eggs. Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks still soft.

  4. 4

    Scatter with the fresh coriander and serve straight from the pan.
