Chorizo baked eggs

If you want to make a veggie version of this, add chopped red pepper and a pinch of paprika instead of the chorizo.

■ Serves 2 ■ Prep 10 mins ■ Cook 30 mins

1 red onion, halved and sliced
olive oil, for frying
100g chorizo, chopped
400g can plum tomatoes
½ small bunch coriander, chopped
4 eggs
wholemeal pittas, to serve

1 Cook the onion in a little olive oil until softened. Add the chorizo and cook for a few mins until it starts to crisp up. Tip in the tomatoes and simmer for 10 mins, then stir in half the coriander and season.

2 Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Divide the sauce between two ovenproof dishes and make two dips in each. Crack the eggs into the dips. Put on a baking tray and bake for 15-20 mins until the whites are set and the yolks are how you like them. Scatter with coriander and serve with warm pittas.
