1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 heads of wet garlic, or 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
400g tinned tomatoes
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tsp ground coriander
300g broad beans
300g peas
4 eggs
a ball of burrata, or broken feta if you prefer
2 tsp smoked harissa mixed with 1 tsp water
half a small bunch of parsley, roughly chopped
half a small bunch of coriander, roughly chopped
2 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper
Warm the olive oil in a medium sized frying pan over moderate heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or so until soft. Add the wet garlic and cook for another 2 minutes.
Stir in the tinned tomatoes and 200ml water and simmer for 15 minutes or so, stirring occasionally.
Add the broad beans to a pan of boiling water, simmer for 2 minutes³ then add the peas and simmer for another 2 minutes. Drain, and add the peas and beans to the tomato sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
The consistency of the sauce should be such that when creating a depression in which to crack each egg, it should only just hold enough of its shape rather than closing over; add a little water should you need to. Stir in the vinegar.
Crack an egg into a cup and having made a scoop in the sauce with a spoon, lower the into it. Repeat with each egg.
Cover with a lid and allow to cook for 5 minutes or so, until the eggs are as you’d like them - the white should be cooked, and the yolk after around 5 minutes.
Break the burrata into pieces and dot across the surface and drizzle with harissa. Sprinkle with salt, ground coriander, pepper, and the chopped herbs.
Serve with excellent bread or toast.
