Instructions
Prepare Ingredients
Dice the onion, crush the garlic, and break the cauliflower into bite‑size florets. Measure out all spices, sauce, water, and cheese.
Time: PT5M
Sauté Onion
Heat olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and a pinch of salt; sauté until the onion becomes translucent and just starts to brown, about 5 minutes.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: Medium heat
Add Garlic and Spices
Add the crushed garlic, sweet paprika, cayenne pepper, and dried oregano to the softened onion. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let the garlic burn.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat
Incorporate Tomato Sauce
Stir in the tomato sauce and the ¼ cup of water, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat
Cook Cauliflower
Add the cauliflower florets to the sauce, cover the skillet, and let cook for about 7 minutes, stirring once halfway, until the cauliflower is tender but still has a bite.
Time: PT7M
Temperature: Medium heat
Create Egg Wells and Add Eggs
Using a spoon, make three small wells in the cauliflower mixture. Crack one egg into each well, being careful not to break the yolks.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat
Cover and Finish Cooking Eggs
Cover the skillet again and increase the heat just enough to gently steam the eggs for 2 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are still slightly runny (or cooked to your preference).
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium‑high heat
Add Cheese and Garnish
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top, then cover for another 2 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove the lid, garnish with dried green onions (or fresh parsley/cilantro), and serve immediately.
Time: PT2M
Temperature: Medium heat
