Ingredients

For the cornbread

40g butter, melted, plus extra for greasing
200g plain flour
150g cornmeal
2 tsp baking powder
2 green chillies, deseeded and finely chopped
2 tbsp grated mature Cheddar
2 large eggs
150ml milk

For the eggs

2 tbsp olive oil
1 large red onion, roughly chopped
150g spicy chorizo, roughly chopped
1 red pepper, deseeded and chopped
2 x 400g cans chopped tomatoes
4 large eggs
½ mild green chilli, deseeded and chopped, to serve (optional)

Method

Make the cornbread. Preheat the oven to 200°C/fan180°C/gas 6. Grease a 16cm x 25cm shallow roasting tin. Mix the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, chillies, cheese and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Beat the eggs, milk and 40g butter in another bowl, then gently mix into the dry ingredients. Pour into the tin and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden and cooked through. Set aside.
Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large ovenproof frying pan and cook the onion for 5 minutes, until softened. Stir in the chorizo and cook until the juices are released. Stir in the pepper, then the tomatoes and bring to a simmer with 100ml water. Cook for 12-15 minutes, until the pepper is soft and the mixture is thickened. Season.
Make 4 wells in the tomato mix. Crack in the eggs and bake for 3-4 minutes to set. Garnish with chilli, if using, and serve with the cornbread.
