Fried Peppers and Tomatoes with Eggs

4 T vegetable oil
2-3 hot green peppers
3-4 cloves garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
4-5 small tomatoes, coarsely chopped
salt to taste
1-2 T hot or sweet paprika, or half of each, according to taste
4 eggs

Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Chop the pepper coarsely into it, then add the chopped garlic
and tomato. Turn up the heat and sauté until the tomatoes are soft. Scrape the mixture from the sides of the
pan into the oil. Sprinkle over some salt, allow the liquids to evaporate somewhat, and mix well. After about
8 minutes, add the paprika and mix again. Continue to sauté for a further 2 minutes.

Break the eggs one at a time into a small dish. Gently slide each egg into the pan over the tomatoes. With a
spoon, carefully fold the whites into the tomatoes without breaking the yolks. When the whites have set but
the yolks are still soft, remove from the heat and serve. Challah is the best accompaniment, but a baguette
is also fine.
