Eggs in Purgatory

Garlic Bread

Method

Eggs in Purgatory

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinara Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, heat the spicy marinara sauce over medium heat until it simmers. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.

  2. 2

    Poach the Eggs

    Once the marinara sauce is simmering, create small wells in the sauce with a spoon and gently crack the eggs into each well. Cover the saucepan and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny.

  3. 3

    Season and Garnish

    Once the eggs are poached, sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and fresh basil leaves before serving.

Garlic Bread

  1. 4

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a small bowl, mix the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic cloves, and chopped parsley until well combined.

  2. 5

    Toast the Baguette

    Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and spread the garlic butter mixture evenly on both halves. Place under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
