Savoury breakfast is one of my lazy weekend favourites. Apart from the traditional English breakfast – a savoury (and unhealthy) classic I am a huge fan of – this Moroccan cuisine inspired egg dish tempted me with bold, intense flavours thanks to Harissa paste. And the best thing – it all takes under 15 minutes to prepare.
Spicy Moroccan eggs with Harissa paste
Ingredients (1-2 portions)
- olive oil
- 1 small onion
- 200g canned tomatoes
- 1 tbsp Harissa paste (I used a shop bought one)
- 1 tsp tomato paste
- 2 eggs
- salt, peper to taste
- chives (chopped)
Instructions
- Heat some olive oil in a frying pan and sweat onions for 2-3 minutes on a low/medium heat
- Add tomatoes, Harissa paste, tomato paste, salt and pepper and fry for another 3-4 minutes on a high heat
- Gently beat in the eggs on top of tomato sauce, season with salt and pepper, cover with lid and cook for 4-5 minutes on a low/medium heat
- Sprinkle with chives and serve hot with bread
I just love your blog – beautiful photos and receipts to my taste! <3

Thank you Eva! :-)
Hi, what kind of canned tomatoes did you use? Whole or chopped or crushed, I’m not sure which can to reach for! Thanks!
Hi Becca, I used chopped tomatoes but I think the crushed ones should be fine too! Enjoy!
