Instructions
Prepare the ingredients and set/pre heat the oven to 200 C° / 400 F°
I use separate pan for the basic tomato sauce and a cast iron for frying and for oven gratin time. Just to be able to have more control when frying.Add the crushed tomatoes and finely sliced green chili into the saucepan on medium/low heat. Cast iron: Finely chop the onion and fry it soft in butter for a few minutes on medium heat. Add the pressed garlic and sliced chili and let it fry for a minute or two. Move the onion to saucepan. And the repeat for the sliced bacon. Stir to mix the flavours. Cast iron: Crumble in minced meat and brown it thoroughly together with all the spices. Lower the heat and add red wine. Simmer for 10 minutes or more until the sauce has reduced.Merge the two pans into the cast iron and stir together.
Make four pits with a tablespoon and crack the eggs in. Sprinkle over the grated cheese. Splash some tabasco over the eggs.Put in oven and gratinate until the eggs are ready. It takes about 12-15 minutes.
Let cool for a few minutes, because the mixture of eggs and minced meat gets really hot!Sprinkle with basil when serving.Go to heaven with Cuisine!
