Directions to follow: 

  • Warm the olive oil in an enormous, lidded griddle. Include the onions and peppers and season with salt and pepper. Cook on medium warmth until simply relaxed. Add the garlic and cook for a further 2 minutes. Sprinkle in the cumin and caraway seeds and the cayenne pepper. Mix in the tomato or red pepper purée and cook for a couple more minutes until the glue begins to isolate. Include the tomatoes with a sprinkle of water. 
  • Stew for 10 minutes, uncovered, until diminished a bit. Include a little sugar on the off chance that you think the tomatoes need it. Watch out for the surface – you don't need it runny, however, it mustn't get excessively dry, either. Include another sprinkle of water if important. At the point when the sauce is diminished, mix in the herbs. 
  • Make 8 little wells in the sauce. Break an egg into a cup and drop cautiously into a well, rehash with the rest of the eggs. Cook for a couple of more minutes until the whites are simply set and the yolks are as yet runny. Sprinkle over the disintegrated feta. Present with yoghurt or labneh for a relishing experience
