Basque-Style Baked Eggs Recipe
  1. Heat a large oven-proof fry pan with a medium-high heat and add in 2 tbsp (30 ml) extra virgin olive oil, after 1 minute add in ½ onion roughly diced and 3 cloves garlic thinly sliced, mix with the olive oil

  2. Once the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes, add 1 yellow, 1 green & 1 red bell pepper that have been finely chopped, continue to mix with the olive oil

  3. About 5 minutes after adding the bell peppers and they are lightly sauteed, add 1 tsp (2.30 grams) sweet smoked Spanish paprika, quickly mix together, then add in 1 ¾ cup finely grated tomatoes (15 oz / 400 grams), mix together and simmer for 5 to 6 minutes

  4. Once the grated tomato has thickened up, turn off the heat, add 4 eggs into the pan, I like to create little pockets in the vegetables so the eggs perfectly sit in there, make sure they are alll evenly spaced out

  5. Add the pan into a preheated oven, bake only option (bottom heat) 190 C - 375 F

  6. After 7 to 9 minutes the eggs should be perfectly baked, with the egg whites firm and the yolks still creamy, remove from the oven

  7. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley and top off with a Spanish guindilla, serve at once, enjoy!
