"This is good! If you like things spicy then make the recipe as written, if you prefer a milder taste then omit the jalepenos and/or cayenne. Plain halloumi cheese is firm, salty and a bit rubbery, the taste is unique, cooked, the saltiness fades into a strong savory bite, with a slightly creamy texture."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a large skillet (with lid) heat olive oil over medium heat.
Step 2
Place peppers and onions in skillet and cook until onions are soft and translucent, (about 6-7 minutes). Add garlic and spices; cook for another 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add in tomatoes. Cook for 15-18 minutes, until slightly thickened.
Step 4
Gently crack the eggs over the surface of the sauce, spacing them out around the pan. Reduce heat to low and cover pan. Cook 6-9 minutes (about 6 minutes for runny yolks, and 9 for firmer).
Step 5
Add the cheeses and parsley to the pan and cover again for just a minute to allow the feta to start to melt.
Step 6
Serve from the skillet.
