  • About

The best way to prepare and serve these eggs is in individual, traditional, shallow clay bowls that cook on the stovetop, but if you don’t have them, use a frying pan. For a small pan, cook two eggs at a time to make sure that everyone gets their serving piping hot.

Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp sumac

Method

Heat the olive oil in the pan or in the clay bowl until hot. Add the two eggs, sprinkle with the sumac and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Carefully spoon some of the oil over the eggs until they are cooked to your liking.
