Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Heat a large, deep skillet or braiser over medium-high heat. Add the crumbled merguez sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Aproximativ 7 min.
Nota bucătarului: Merguez is spicy; adjust harissa later based on your preference.
2
Remove the cooked merguez from the skillet with a slotted spoon, leaving behind the rendered fat. Set the sausage aside.
Aproximativ 1 min.
3
Add the olive oil to the skillet with the merguez drippings. Add the chopped onion and diced bell pepper, then sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Aproximativ 7 min.
4
Stir in the minced garlic and tomato paste. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste darkens slightly.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Cooking the tomato paste helps deepen its flavor.
5
Pour in the canned crushed tomatoes and water. Add the harissa, cumin powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Aproximativ 2 min.
6
Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Aproximativ 10 min.
7
Uncover the skillet and return the cooked merguez sausage to the sauce. Stir to combine.
Aproximativ 1 min.
8
Make four small wells in the sauce and carefully crack one egg into each well. Season the eggs lightly with salt and pepper.
Aproximativ 1 min.
9
Cover the skillet and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired consistency.
Aproximativ 7 min.
Nota bucătarului: For runny yolks, cook closer to 5 minutes; for firmer yolks, cook longer.
10
Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving. Serve hot, directly from the skillet, with crusty bread.
