Ingredients

  • 300g baby new potatoes, halved
  • ½ tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 knob of butter
  • 1 courgette, cut into small chunks
  • 1 yellow pepper, cut into small chunks
  • 1 red pepper, cut into small chunks
  • 2 spring onions, finely sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 sprig thyme, leaves picked
  • 4 eggs
  • toast, to serve

Method

  1. Boil the new potatoes for 8 mins, then drain.

  2. Heat the oil and butter in a large non-stick frying pan, then add the courgette, peppers, potatoes and a little salt and pepper. Cook for 10 mins, stirring from time to time until everything is starting to brown. Add the spring onions, garlic and thyme and cook for 2 mins more.

  3. Make four spaces in the pan and crack in the eggs. Cover with foil or a lid and cook for around 4 mins, or until the eggs are cooked (with the yolks soft for dipping into). Sprinkle with more thyme leaves and ground black pepper if you like. Serve with toast.
