Preparation
- Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the water and tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook until the tomatoes start to burst but still hold some of their shape, 5–7 minutes.
- Using the back of a spoon, create 2 wells in the tomato mixture. Crack an egg into each well. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook uncovered for 5–6 minutes, until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still a bit runny.
- Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!
