Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Add the olive oil and Mesa de Vida starter sauce to a cold skillet. Turn the heat up to medium high and cook until fragrant and simmering. (This prevents the oil and sauce from spattering.)
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes and salt to taste. Simmer for 2 minutes.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl, then pour into the simmering sauce. Gently use a spoon to stir through the egg white to allow the sauce to come up between each egg.
- Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Cover lower the heat to medium low, cook to your desired doneness.
- Sprinkle with cheese if desired and serve immediately with bread (sourdough, pita, lavash, tortillas, etc.) rubbed with a fresh garlic clove, or over polenta.
