Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large deep-sided frying pan that has a lid. Fry the red onion and butternut squash over high heat for 4-5 mins, until beginning to brown.
  2. Reduce the heat and add the green pepper, garlic, harissa, cumin and smoked paprika. Cook for 2-3 mins until fragrant. Season well with salt and black pepper. Pour in the chopped tomatoes and crumble over the stock cube. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 5-8 mins, or until the squash is almost tender.
  3. Stir through the kale and cook for another 2 mins until wilted. Make 6 wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each one. Cover and cook for 10-12 mins until the whites have set on the top. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the chopped herbs. Serve immediately.
