Eggs In Purgatory

Eggs In Purgatory

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 garlic cloves, minced

¾ cup diced yellow onion, small diced

3 cups of your favorite tomato sauce

heavy pinch oregano

heavy pinch crushed chili flakes

1 teaspoon salt, if desired

6 eggs

¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

¼ bunch basil

We served our eggs with thinly sliced and toasted Italian bread.

In a large skillet over medium-low heat, add the oil. Cook the onion and garlic until soft. Add the tomato sauce, oregano and chili flake. Season if needed.

When hot, crack an egg in a small bowl; using a spoon make a well in the sauce and pour in the cracked egg. Repeat with the remaining eggs.

Season with salt and pepper, cover and cook for about 4 minutes or until the whites are just set.

Remove from the heat and top with parmesan cheese and basil.

Serve with toasted bread.
