  • Create small wells in beans to add the eggs and crack the eggs into their own individual wells. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low and let cook for about 5 minutes, depending on how well you like your eggs cooked. If you don't like them runny at all, you'll need to cook then longer. Make sure to check on it often.

  • Once the eggs reach desired doneness, sprinkle with extra cilantro and cheese (if desired). Enjoy with any bread of your choice: pita, khobz tawa, naan, sliced bread, brioche, etc.
