Eggs In Purgatory With Sausage Recipes

EGGS IN PURGATORY - ITALIAN BAKED EGGS IN GARLIC TOMATO SAUSAGE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a cast iron skillet, add oil and sausage to the pan to brown over medium-high for about 5 minutes. Once browned, remove to a bowl and set aside.
• Add onions to the skillet and sauté for 4 minutes. Then add garlic for 30 seconds. Pour off excess oil if required (this will depend on how fatty your sausage is). And add sausage back to the skillet.
• Reduce heat to medium, and add the cans of diced tomatoes, spices, and salt and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then reduce to low and cook for 20 minutes.
• Preheat over to 375° F.
• After 20 minutes, taste for seasoning and add more salt if needed. Add the balsamic vinegar and stir to combine. Then make 4 small holes in the sauce and crack the eggs in each hole. Add the halved tomatoes and mozzarella, then bake for 12-15 minutes or until the whites of the eggs have set.
• Once done, remove from oven and garnish with shaved parmesan and fresh oregano or basil.

EGGS IN PURGATORY WITH SALAMI

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove the garlic with a slotted spoon and discard. Increase the heat to high and add the salami, onion, peppers and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring, until the salami starts to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato puree and 1/2 cup water and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Scatter the parsley leaves into the skillet. Make 4 indentations in the pepper mixture for the eggs. Break 2 eggs into a small bowl, then pour both into one of the indentations. Repeat with the remaining eggs. Sprinkle with the grated cheese. Cover and cook until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to desired doneness. Serve with the bread.

Steps:

• In a large skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic, anchovies and red-pepper flakes and cook just until the garlic turns golden brown at the edges, about 1 minute. Stir in tomatoes, salt, pepper and basil sprig, and turn the heat to medium-low.
• Simmer, squashing tomato pieces with a wooden spoon or a potato masher, until the tomatoes break down and thicken into a sauce, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, butter, salt and red-pepper flakes to taste.
• Using the back of a spoon, make 6 divots into the tomato sauce, then crack an egg into each divot. Cover the pan and let cook until the eggs are set to taste, about 2 to 3 minutes for runny yolks. (If the pan is not covered, the eggs won't cook through, so don't skip that step.)
• While the eggs are cooking, toast bread in a toaster or under the broiler. Rub warm toast with the cut garlic clove, drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt.
• To serve, sprinkle eggs with more Parmesan and chopped herbs, then spoon onto plates or into shallow bowls. Serve with garlic toast and pass pepper flakes at the table.
