Ingredients
- 2 medium, waxy potatoes, unpeeled
- 100g sun-blush tomatoes in oil
- 1 Spanish onion, sliced
- 1 large courgette, sliced
- 150g Fontina cheese, diced
- 6 medium eggs
- handful flatleaf parsley, chopped
Directions
-
Boil the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, until just cooked. Drain, cool under cold running water, then peel and roughly slice.
-
Take 2 tablespoons of oil from the tomatoes and heat in a 23cm non-stick frying pan. Add the onion and courgette and cook over a medium heat, stirring, for 5 minutes. Layer the potato slices, cheese and tomatoes over the top and season well.
-
In a jug, beat the eggs with most of the parsley. Season, then pour evenly into the pan – you don’t want it more than three-quarters full, as the egg will rise. Cover and cook on a low heat for 15 minutes or until the egg is just set. Tilt the pan during cooking, to tip the runny egg to the edge.
-
Top with the remaining parsley, cut into 4, and serve with salad and crusty bread.
