Step by Step Method

Step 1

Bring the marinara sauce to a simmer in a small saucepan or an 8-inch omelet pan and turn the heat to low. Add the cayenne, if desired, and the slivered basil.

Step 2

Break the egg or eggs into a teacup, and carefully tip them into the tomato sauce. Cover the pan and simmer over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until the tops of the whites are set but the yellow yolk shows through. It’s important that the yolk be runny. Turn off the heat. Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle on the Parmesan.

Step 3

Serve in a wide soup bowl, on top of the garlic toast or with the toast on the side.

Had something similar in a diner in Texas and was eager to try your recipe. Enjoyed these immensely! Poaching them in the sauce was the perfect touch. Served over toasted Italian bread. Great for brunch or easy supper.

Great brunch recipe - this is a DANDY recipe :D . The sauce under the egg Mmm. I mixed a clove of minced garlic with the butter that I spread on my toast. Another will make again - Thanks Dan for posting this delicious, easy recipe
