Ingredients

Egg4 large, about 220 g
Chickpeas, tinned and drainedOne tin, drained (240 g)
Drained weight. A 400 g tin drains to about 240 g.
Chopped tomatoes, tinnedOne tin (400 g)
Red pepper150 g
Onion100 g
Feta40 g
Olive oil10 g
Garlic3 cloves, about 9 g
Ground cumin1 tsp
Smoked paprika1 tsp
Chilli flakesA pinch
Fresh parsleyA handful

Method

Cook the sliced onion and pepper in the oil over a medium heat for ten minutes until soft, then add the garlic, cumin, paprika and chilli flakes for a minute.
Add the tomatoes and chickpeas with salt and simmer for ten minutes until the sauce is thick enough to hold a well.
Make four hollows, crack an egg into each, cover the pan and cook on a low heat for six to eight minutes until the whites are set and the yolks still move.
Crumble the feta over with the parsley.

Worth knowing

The chickpeas turn a breakfast dish into dinner: 8 g of the 29 g and enough bulk that bread is optional rather than required.
The lid matters. Without it the whites take twice as long and the yolks go hard before they are done.
