Equipment

  • 1 cast iron skillet optional, or alternatively, use a stainless steel pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 half of white onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 tomato
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 2 tsp harissa paste
  • chicken mince
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 handful feta
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Finely chop up your onions, garlic and tomatoes.
  • In your cast-iron skillet or pan, add in your chopped onions and garlic. Allow that to cook down.
  • Grind in some salt, add in your turmeric, chilli powder and curry powder. Stir that in and let that cook together for around a minute until the spices have cooked off.
  • Add in your chopped tomatoes and two teaspoons of harissa paste and give that a good stir, cover and let that cook for around 10 minutes until the juices start to release.
  • Add in your chicken mince, give that a good stir again and let that cook for around 12 – 15 minutes on a medium heat. Once cooked, you can add salt to taste.
  • Crack in two eggs on a low heat, let that cook for about a minute or two and then place in a pre-heated oven on a heat of around 180°C.
  • If you want runny eggs, I would cook this for around 4 minutes, just until the whites are set, and then remove. You want the yolk to still be a little bit fragile essentially.
  • Finally, crack on some black pepper and feta.
