Method

  • Dice onion and crush garlic. Heat up oil in a deep pan, toss in onions. Fry until golden, add garlic.
  • Fry for further 30 sec. Add lentils, water and salt. Cover with lid and cook for 6 minutes. Keep checking and stirring, so the lentils don't stick to the bottom.
  • Add canned tomatoes and spices, cook for 4 minutes.
  • Add more salt (if required) and pepper.
  • Crack the eggs on top, cover with lid and cook for about 4 minutes, depending on how runny you like the yolk.
  • Dress with fresh herbs.
  • Fresh mint was used in this recipe (pictured), but coriander or parsley are great too.
  • You can add any veg to it, if you like, grated carrot or red pepper go well with it.
  • Enjoy!
