Ingredients

  • 14 oz bacon approximately 4 slices short cut bacn
  • 2 ½ tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 eggs I used organic eggs
  • 1 red capsicum sliced into small strips

  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 14 oz tomatoes tinned, organic, chopped preferably
  • 2 teaspoons Moroccan spice
  • Chilli flakes you can add more if you can handle it
  • Fresh parsley roughly chopped
  • Dukkah I used a pistacchio dukkah mix
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon Pepper

Instructions

  • Add 1/2 tablespoon olive oil to a fry pan on medium high heat , add bacon and cook until browned and crispy. Set aside on a plate covered with paper towel to drain the fat.
  • Heat another fry pan (large) on medium heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and saute the onion, garlic and capsicum with a sprinkle of sea salt for 3-4 minutes or until the onion and capsicum start to soften. Add the bacon, tomatoes, Moroccan spices and chilli flakes, stir and cover with a lid and cook on low heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Make four wells in the mixture with a spoon and crack an egg into each well and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover again and cook on low heat until the egg whites are cooked, but the egg yolks are gooey.
  • To serve, sprinkle with some fresh parsley and dukkah
