Directions

Preheat the oven to 190C/375F/gas 5.

Warm the oil in a frying pan and add the onion and garlic. Cook gently for about 3 minutes. Add the peppers and continue cooking over a gentle heat until the peppers are tender, without letting them brown. Add the tomatoes, herbs, salt and pepper. Simmer for about 15 minutes, breaking up the tomatoes with a spoon, until the peppers are bathed in a thick tomato sauce.

Quickly pour the mixture into an ovenproof dish and carefully break the eggs on top of it. Bake for about 10 minutes until the egg whites are just set. Serve immediately with lots of good bread to mop up the juices.
