👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or braiser over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 2
Add the minced garlic and diced red bell pepper. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until the pepper begins to soften.
- 3
Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, cumin, and chili powder (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- 4
Add the crushed tomatoes (with their juices), salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken.
- 5
Make wells in the tomato sauce using the back of a spoon. Carefully crack an egg into each well.

Cover the skillet and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Be careful not to overcook the yolks.

Garnish with fresh parsley and coriander. Serve immediately with warm Libyan bread for dipping.
