    This is even beter when made with fresh tomatoes. When you have a glut at the end of the growing season, make and freeze the sauce in potions of the right size for your family.

    I have made this egg dish for my family, my 2 year old daughter loves eggs so it was nice to do something different than omlet for her. This dish is nice on its own but we had it with crusty rolls to mop up all the lovely sauce.

    very very nice. I made polenta as suggested by mmalta 113 and it worked beautifully...my only complaint is that I was dissapointed when I realised that there was no baking in this recipe... i reaaly fancied making eggs in the oven!

    This was great! Very tasty, very easy and a good recipe to use up what I have lying around! I have added both brocolli and chunks of ham to this and it always turns out well no matter what you seem to add! I use half tinned tomatoes and half fresh as a general rule. Even better than I thought it was going to be!

    couldn't get tins of cherry tomatoes so used a tin of regular ones and a packet of fresh cherry tomatoes. the chilli that i used was not very hot so it could have done with a bit more spice, but no other complaints. served it with potato wedges for a slightly more interesting egg and chips supper!

    I liked this as a simple midweek meal but hubby wasn't so keen. I served his with crispy chorizo on top and a crusty bread roll to make it seem more substantial but he still kept digging through the sauce in the hope of finding some pasta!!

    This recipe is ok. The only reason why I gave it 3 stars instead of 2 is that it is so cheap and very light - so if you are after something warm and light in the evening its great, otherwise try something else.

    One of my favourites, we found this dish in Turkey served for breakfast, with fresh bread. Called something that sounds like Memenem but we found if you tried to order Eminem it usually worked.

    This is a delicious, quick and very light meal. I did not have any tinned cherry tomatoes so I just used regular chopped ones. I added fresh basil and dried rosemary to the suace, and served it with plain cous cous. Absolutely lovely.

    Delicious. I added some red lentils to stock it up a bit for a tasty brunch and some fresh rosemary to the garlic and onions to make it a bit more fragrant. My husband and I just ate it with some crusty brown bread. Yum! Perfect Autumn brunch!

    So easy and so delicious. I used normal tinned whole tomatoes and rosemary instead fo coriander, because that is what I had. A new family favourite.
