Cooking Instructions:

  1. 1
    Preheat an oven to 180°C and heat olive oil in a large oven proof frying pan over a medium heat. Add red onion and sauté for a few minutes until soft.
  2. 2
    Add the crushed garlic and cook for a further two minutes.
  3. 3
    Add the coriander, chilli, oregano, paprika, smoked paprika, and cumin seeds.
  4. 4
    Continue to cook for another few minutes, adding a splash of water if the pan begins to catch.
  5. 5
    In the same pan fry off the eggplant, medium heat for a few minutes.
  6. 6
    Add the jar of roasted capsicum and black beans, stirring to combine.
  7. 7
    Stir in the tomato paste, crushed tomatoes and barbecue sauce. Add just enough water just to cover and bring to a simmer.
  8. 8
    Turn the heat down to low and cover with a lid. Gently cook on for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  9. 9
    Remove the lid and cook until the sauce has thickened to your liking. Adjust seasoning if needed.
  10. 10
    With a back of large spoon, make four shallow indents in the sauce and crack the eggs into each one.
  11. 11
    Crumble over the feta and transfer to the oven. Bake until the white is just set, and the yolk is still runny.
  12. 12
    Garnish with fresh coriander and serve with toasted sourdough.

Tips:

  1. 1
    For the hardcore meat lovers, add in some fried chorizo to boost the smoky flavours.
  2. 2
    Also delicious with steamed brown rice or sweet potato wedges.
  3. 3
    For a little extra creaminess, add a generous dollop of fresh Greek yogurt or sour cream for serving and toasted cumin seeds.
