EGGS IN PURGATORY



Eggs in Purgatory image

It's unclear whether "purgatory" refers to the bubbling red tomato sauce used to poach the eggs in this easy skillet meal or the fire of the red-pepper flakes that the sauce is spiked with. In either case, this speedy Southern Italian dish, whipped up from pantry staples, makes for a heavenly brunch, lunch or light supper. Note that the anchovies are not traditional, but they add a subtle fishy richness to the tomatoes. However, feel free to leave them out.

Time 30m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more for drizzling on toast
2 large cloves garlic, 1 thinly sliced and 1 halved
3 anchovy fillets, minced (optional)
Pinch of red-pepper flakes, more to taste and for serving
1 (28-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, more to taste
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large sprig fresh basil or rosemary, or a pinch of dried rosemary
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan, more for serving
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, more to taste
6 eggs
Sliced crusty bread, for serving
Small handful chopped basil or parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic, anchovies and red-pepper flakes and cook just until the garlic turns golden brown at the edges, about 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, salt, pepper and basil sprig, and turn the heat to medium-low.
  • Simmer, squashing tomato pieces with a wooden spoon or a potato masher, until the tomatoes break down and thicken into a sauce, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, butter, salt and red-pepper flakes to taste.
  • Using the back of a spoon, make 6 divots into the tomato sauce, then crack an egg into each divot. Cover the pan and let cook until the eggs are set to taste, about 2 to 3 minutes for runny yolks. (If the pan is not covered, the eggs won't cook through, so don't skip that step.)
  • While the eggs are cooking, toast bread in a toaster or under the broiler. Rub warm toast with the cut garlic clove, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt.
  • To serve, sprinkle eggs with more Parmesan and chopped herbs, then spoon onto plates or into shallow bowls. Serve with garlic toast and pass pepper flakes at the table.

EGGS IN PURGATORY

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 large eggs
2 cups mashed potatoes, chilled
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup marinara sauce, warmed
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Stir 1 egg in a large bowl to blend. Mix in the potatoes, then the flour. Using a generous 1/2 cup of potato mixture for each, form the potato mixture into 4 (4 1/2-inch) diameter pancakes.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick fry pan over medium heat. Fry the pancakes until they are golden brown and heated through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the pancakes to paper towels to drain. Keep the pancakes warm on a baking sheet in the oven. Pour off the excess oil from the pan.
  • Heat the pan over medium-low heat. Crack the remaining 4 eggs into the pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until the white is firm, about 2 minutes. Using a spatula, turn the eggs over and cook for 30 seconds longer.
  • Spoon the sauce onto 4 plates. Place a pancake atop the sauce. Top each pancake with a fried egg. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. If they are not in season, you can use canned diced tomatoes, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of chili flakes to your taste. If you like it spicy, add more! If you prefer less heat, start with a smaller amount and add more as desired.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. A crusty Italian bread, a soft focaccia, or even a baguette would all be great choices for dipping into the sauce.
  • Top the eggs with grated Parmesan cheese before serving. This will add a delicious cheesy flavor and help to thicken the sauce.
  • Serve immediately with a side of fresh parsley or basil. This will add a pop of color and freshness to the dish.
