EGGS IN PURGATORY RECIPE - CALABRIAN RENDITION WITH SPICY NDUJA

Steps:

• Place the oil in a large pan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic pieces to the pan and sweat the garlic until it the oil bubbles vigorously around the slices. Remove the garlic slices and discard.
• Add the onion to the pan and sweat slowly over a medium-low heat for 15 minutes or until soft. We do not want the onions to colour, just to be translucent and fragrant. Add the remaining garlic and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the 'nduja and the tomato paste and sweat the 'nduja until it becomes soft and almost liquid.
• Add the tomatoes to the pan and crush them down a little. Season with salt and simmer over a low heat for 45 minutes. We want a relatively thick sauce but if it becomes too stiff, add a little water. Taste for seasoning.
• Add the roasted red peppers and stir into the sauce.
• When ready to bake the eggs, break each egg into an individual cup. Make indents into the sauce for the eggs to sit in. We don't want the egg whites to spread across the surface of the sauce. Turn the heat up to get the sauce to have a light simmer.
• Carefully pour each egg into each indent. Put the lid on the pan to cook the eggs. This should take just a few minutes.
• We like our eggs with a runny yolk, but if you like the egg yolks harder, keep cooking until the yolks become lighter in colour and do not wobble when you move the pan.
• Remove the pan from heat and to serve individually, carefully remove each egg 'pocket' with a large serving spoon onto the individual plates.
• Drizzle some olive oil over your baguette slices, top the eggs and sauce with basil or parsley and the grated cheese.

EGGS IN PURGATORY WITH SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and almost cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir the bread into the sausage mixture and cook until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the marinara sauce and 2 cups water; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium (or move the skillet to a cooler part of the campfire). Stir in the provolone, 2 tablespoons Parmesan and 1/4 cup basil.
• Use the back of a spoon to make 4 shallow wells in the tomato mixture; carefully crack 1 egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 4 to 9 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan and 1/4 cup basil. Season with salt and pepper.

Add the anchovy, paprika, garlic and a pinch of pepperoncini and cook for 1 more minute. Add the wine and deglaze. Add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer. Allow to simmer and reduce, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the capers and half the parsley. Lower the heat.
• Make 4 wells in the mixture, then place an egg into each. Sprinkle the whole dish with salt and pepper. Bake 8 to 12 minutes, depending on how you prefer your eggs. Garnish with the remaining pinch pepperoncini, the habanero if using, the remaining parsley and pecorino. Serve warm with the garlic-rubbed baguette, if using.
