Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large non-stick pan over a medium heat and fry the onion for 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and spices, then fry for a further couple of minutes.
  2. Stir in all the tomatoes, the vinegar and sugar. Season. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until the sauce is thick. If it gets too thick, add a splash of water.
  3. Make 4 hollows in the tomato sauce. Crack an egg into each, then use a fork to stir the white into the sauce a little. Cover with a lid and cook gently for 4-6 minutes until the whites are just set. Serve scattered with parsley and dollops of soured cream.
