Method

  1. 1

    Heat the olive oil in a pan and fry the onion, peppers and garlic for 4–5 minutes until softened.

  2. 2

    Add the courgette and cook for a further 3–4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in the tinned tomatoes and smoked paprika, season, and simmer for 12–15 minutes until thick and jammy.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, fry the egg in a little oil until the white is set.

  5. 5

    Spoon the pisto into a bowl, top with the fried egg and serve with crusty bread.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves ½ tin of chopped tomato, ½ red pepper and ½ green pepper. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
