METHOD:
- Cook onion and garlic on medium heat for around 5 minutes until it starts to brown. Add in peppers and zucchini. Once all ingredients are soft, add in paprika and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Stir in tomatoes, beans, spinach and lemon juice, before bringing to the boil. Keep on simmer for 7-10 minutes.
- Make space for the eggs in the sauce and break these in. Turn the heat down to low and cook until the eggs are at desired preference.
- Sprinkle chilli, basil and coriander over mixture just before serving
