1tbsp.olive oil
2tbsps.tomato paste
1tsp.cumin seasoning
10gfresh parsley

Instructions
Take a large non-stick skillet; pour oil and let it heat on medium to high. Peel garlic and onion and chop them into small pieces. Sauté vegetables in the skillet until soft and translucent.
Cut red bell pepper into small pieces to match the size of onion slices. Add to the skillet and sauté for another 5 minutes on the stove.
Add chopped tomatoes (cut them the same way that you have already had all the vegetables cut before), and tomato paste. Sprinkle the seasoning and mix.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let the mixture simmer for 5 to 7 minutes. Tomatoes should soften and let the juice out.
Open the lid; make five hollows and beat in eggs one by one. Try being very careful to keep yolks intact.
Cook eggs in the mixture for 10 minutes under the lead.
Add chopped parsley for garnish. Serve in the skillet with some pita or toast. Enjoy your meal!
