Ingredients
- 1 tbsp Co-op olive oil
- 1 onion, finely sliced
- 4 garlic cloves, crushed
- 2 x 400g cans Co-op chopped tomatoes
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 2 x 400g cans Co-op chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 100ml Co-op British semi-skimmed milk
- 2 Co-op smoked back bacon rashers
- 4 Co-op British free range eggs
- 2 Co-op pitta breads, toasted, to serve
Method
- To make the sauce, heat the oil in a large pan that has a lid, and cook the onion over a medium-high heat for 7-8 mins, stirring, until softened
- Add the garlic and cook for another minute
- Stir in the tomatoes, thyme, chickpeas and milk, then bring to a simmer
- Partially cover the pan and cook, stirring often, for 25 mins
- While it’s cooking, heat the grill and cook the bacon until it’s crisp, 8-10 mins, turning halfway, then keep warm
- When the sauce is done, make 4 wells in it and crack an egg into each
- Cover the pan fully, turn the heat to medium-low, and cook for 5-6 mins, until the egg whites have set
- Chop, then scatter the bacon around the pan, then serve with the pitta bread to mop up the juices
