Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Dice the eggplant, bell peppers, and onion. Mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced eggplant and cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Then add the onion, bell peppers, and garlic. Sauté for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  3. 3

    Add Tomato and Spices

    Stir in the canned crushed tomatoes, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Cook the Eggs

    Create small wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each well. Cover the skillet and let the eggs cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve warm, optionally topped with garlic yogurt.
