Eggs for dinner...

Last night mom made one of my favorite and easiest meals for dinner, eggs in tomato sauce. This is a one pot meal with very few ingredients and takes about twenty minutes to put together. Typically, you would have all these ingredients in your pantry and you would just need to pick up bread to finish off the dinner. Here is my mom's recipe for eggs in tomato....

Serves 4
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves of garlic, skinned and left whole
1 can plum tomato, crushed in food processor
8 egg
Salt and pepper
Your favorite crusty bread

In a large saucepan heat the oil and then add the garlic. Let garlic brown slightly and then add the tomato. Salt and pepper tomato and bring to a simmer. Let simmer about fifteen minutes, taste and adjust seasoning. Crack eggs one at a time in a bowl and then add to the tomato, one at time until you have added all of them. Do not stir the egg around, you want the yolk and white to stay intact as it cooks. Place a lid on the pot and cook eggs about five-seven minutes. Serve immediately with your favorite crusty bread and enjoy your eggs for dinner!!
