Spicy Barbecue Egg and Bacon in a "Mess"
Author: Sarah Trivuncic
Recipe type: Main Meals
Cuisine: Barbecue
Serves: 2
- 1 tbsp rapeseed oil (or other oil suitable for frying)
- ½ red onion, sliced
- ½ green pepper, diced
- 2 fat garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
- 100g lardons
- 400g can chopped tomatoes
- 2 large eggs
- spring onion and coriander to garnish
- Light the barbecue and start to cook as soon as the flames have died down. (Or use a hob indoors).
- Heat the oil in the mess tin then fry the onions. When softened add the garlic then the peppers.
- Next add the lardons. Turn these with a spatula until cooked through.
- Then incorporate the spices and add the canned tomatoes.
- Leave to simmer for several minutes until thickened.
- When the tomato is very hot and thicker, create wells for the raw eggs and tip these in.
- Leave the eggs to cook. The time this takes will depend on the strength of your barbecue. A sheet of foil will help keep the heat into the mess tin.
- When the eggs are cooked, serve with a scattering of spring onion, fresh coriander and grindings of salt and pepper.
