Ingredients: 1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp olive oil
4–5 fresh basil leaves
Parmesan, Pecorino, or Grana Padano cheese (enough to fully cover your pan)
2–4 eggs
Salt & pepper, to taste
Extra fresh basil for serving
Toasted bread, for serving Instructions: Add the tomato sauce, water, olive oil, and basil to a blender and blend until smooth. Lightly coat a nonstick pan with a thin layer of olive oil. Grate a generous layer of Parmesan, Pecorino, or Grana Padano into the pan so the bottom is completely covered. Crack the eggs directly over the cheese. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook for 2–3 minutes, until the cheese becomes deeply golden and crispy. Pour the blended tomato sauce around the eggs. Cover with a lid and cook for another 2–3 minutes, or until the eggs reach your desired doneness. Season with salt, pepper, and extra fresh basil. Serve immediately with toasted bread for dipping. 🍞🍳
