Ingredients:
- 1 red pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- pinch of salt
- half an onion, chopped
- 2 cans chopped, unseasoned tomatoes
- 1 clove garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika

- 2 Tablespoons tomato paste
Instructions:
1. Drizzle olive oil in the cast iron skillet and let it warm up over medium-high heat.
2. Chop the garlic, onion and red pepper, and place it in the skillet. Let it cook for 5-6 minutes or until the onion becomes translucent.
3. Add the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste and harissa into the skillet. Stir until everything mixes together. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes for the sauce to reduce a bit.
4. Add pepper and salt to taste.
5. Crack 5-6 eggs over the tomato sauce. Make sure to cover the skillet and let it cook for another 5-6 minutes. Be careful not to overcook. You want the sauce and eggs to be slightly runny.
