ADD TOMATOES

Add the tomatoes, turn your EGG down to 140˚C and cook for 30 minutes. Make small wells in the mixture and crack in your eggs. Cook for a further 6-7 minutes until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Scatter over the za’atar and coriander and serve with some fresh flatbreads.
