Method
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat and fry the onion and red pepper for 8 minutes until softened.
Stir in the garlic, ground cumin, smoked paprika and cayenne pepper and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped tomatoes, caster sugar and fine sea salt, and simmer for 15 minutes until thickened.
Make six wells in the sauce with the back of a spoon and crack an egg into each one.
Cover the pan and cook for 6 minutes until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still soft.
Scatter over the chopped coriander and crumbled feta cheese and serve straight from the pan.
