Method
- In a large cast-iron pan, dry roast cumin seeds over medium heat for a couple of minutes until fragrant.
- Add a drizzle of oil, then onion, peppers, garlic, thyme, parsley, cayenne, and smoked paprika. Cook over medium-high heat until lightly browned.
- Add tomatoes, saffron, harissa, salt and pepper. Add water until the mixture has a nice tomato sauce consistency. Cook on low for 15 minutes, adding more water as needed to maintain consistency.
- Using a large spoon, make 6 wells in the sauce. Crack one egg into each well. Season eggs with salt and pepper. Cover and cook for about 10 minutes until eggs are set but yolks are still slightly runny.
- Sprinkle with crumbled feta and serve directly from the pan with low carb bread for dipping.
