Lazy Sunday Breakfast Recipe

Breakfast is one of my favourite meals of the day. Especially if you have the time to have a leisurely one, even better again is if someone else is cooking it for you.

This a great breakfast on a lazy Sunday morning. It also makes a great ‘breakfast for dinner’ which the kids love with some fresh sourdough bread. The great thing about it is that it can be gluten-free and dairy-free if you like

Spicy Spanish Baked Eggs RECIPE:

  • 1 teaspoon ghee (avocado or olive oil)

  • 1 white onion, diced                    

  • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed          

  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika      

  • 1 capsicum (red or yellow),diced

  • 5/6 tomatoes, chopped              

  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock 

  • 4 eggs                                          

  • 1/2 cup tasty cheese, grated (optional)  

  • 1chorizo sausage sliced or 8 chorizo salami slices
    (optional for added heat)

  • Salt and pepper, for seasoning    

  • A large cast iron pan is best.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Heat up your pan on high and add the ghee. Sauté your onions then add your garlic and smoked paprika. Cook for a few minutes- till fragrant.

Throw in your capsicum and tomatoes, cooking for a couple of minutes. Add your stock, salt and pepper, stir through and bring up to simmering point. Reduce to a medium heat and crack in your 4 eggs, leaving enough space between them so they aren't touching each other.

Leave to slowly cook. The stock will start to reduce and you'll be able to see your eggs turning white. Once the eggs are cooked to your liking sprinkle the grated cheese on top and serve once it has melted.

I really enjoy sharing this straight from the pan, with a few slices of fresh sourdough for dipping into it- yummy!!
