Preparation

Step 1

This Eggs in Purgatory Recipe makes 4 servings.

Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Thinly slice the chorizo sausage. Slice red pepper into four pieces.

Pour olive oil into a large frying pan and place on medium heat. When hot, sauté onion, garlic and chorizo sausage in the pan until onions are translucent and soft. Stir in red pepper flakes, basil and oregano. Add crushed tomatoes and simmer for approximately 15 minutes.

Heat oven to 375F degrees.

Divide the tomato sauce into the four individual ceramic dishes. Press a spoon in the middle to create a depression for the eggs. Break 2 eggs into each dish and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until whites are set, but yolks are still runny. Serve with bread or homemade fries.
