Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 3 oz (90 g) feta, crumbled
  • ½ cup (10 g) parsley, roughly chopped
  • 1.5 tsp aleppo pepper flakes
  • 10 tbsp (75 ml) olive oil
  • 3 tsp coriander seeds, lightly toasted and crushed
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 red bell peppers, seeded and cut into ½-inch slices
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds, lightly toasted and crushed
  • 2 tsp tomato paste
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • 2 lb (1 kg) tomatoes, roughly chopped
  • 5 oz (150 g) cherry tomatoes
  • 4 tsp rose harissa
  • ⅔ cup water
  • salt and black pepper
  • 8 eggs, lightly beaten
Instructions
  1. For the feta, in a medium bowl, stir the feta with the parsley, 1 tsp of the aleppo pepper flakes, 6 tbsp olive oil, and 1 tsp of the coriander seeds. Mix and set aside.
  2. Pour the remaining 4 tbsp of olive oil into a large cast-iron skillet or saute pan with a lid over medium-high heat. Add the onion to the pan and saute for 5 minutes, or until softened and lightly browned. Add in the bell pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes. Next, stir in the garlic, cumin seeds, tomato paste, paprika, and remaining coriander seeds. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, rose harissa, water, 2 tsp salt, and black pepper to taste. Simmer over medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Stir in the eggs along with another pinch of salt and black pepper. Gently fold the eggs so that they are partially mixed in, then decrease the heat to medium-low, cover the pan and cook for 4 minutes or until the eggs are set.
  4. Remove from the pan from the heat and divide among serving bowls. Top with the marinated feta and remaining aleppo pepper flakes.
