Step 1
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Make an X with a knife on the bottom of each tomato and then soak for about 3 minutes in the boiling water.

Step 2
Remove the tomatoes and let them cool off. Then chop the peeled tomatoes into chunks.

Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and then sauté the garlic and green chilli for about 2 minutes. Add 3 teaspoons of "Smokin’ Red Blend".
-
Step 4
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, tomato puree, salt, sugar and water. Cook for about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thick and bubbly.
-
Step 5
Form 6-8 holes in the sauce and carefully break an egg into each hole.

Reduce the heat to low and put a lid on. Cook for about 6-8 minutes or until the egg whites are set and yolks still runny.

Sprinkle it with coriander and crumbled feta cheese.
