Method

  1. 1

    Dice the red onion and crush the garlic. Heat olive oil in a wide, deep frying pan over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Fry the onion for 5 minutes until softened, then add the garlic, cumin, and harissa. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Drain and rinse the chickpeas, then add along with the tinned tomatoes. Stir well and simmer for 10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Make 8 wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each one. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Cover the pan and cook for 6–8 minutes until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Serve straight from the pan with flatbreads.
