Spicy Tomato Sauce With Poached Eggs And Roasted Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 3 lbs. red potatoes, unpeeled and cut into 3/4 inch cubes
• 4 TBS olive oil
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1 small onion, minced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
• 1 lb. fresh tomatoes peeled, cored and chopped
• 3 TBS tomato paste
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
• 1/2 tsp hot sauce
• 2 TBS fresh parsley, chopped
• 1/2 tsp dried basil
• 1 TBS balsamic vinegar
• 6 eggs

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss the cubed potatoes with 2 TBS olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place in a baking dish in a single layer and bake approximately one hour, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.

While the potatoes are baking, heat 2 TBS oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Saute the minced onion and garlic until soft, but not brown. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, wine, water, pepper flakes, hot sauce, parsley and basil. Simmer the mixture over low heat for 20-30 minutes. Season with vinegar, salt, and pepper. Once the potatoes are done, turn off heat but leave in oven to stay warm. With the tomato mixture gently simmering, make wells in the mixture and place raw eggs evenly over the top. Place a lid on the pan and poach the eggs until they reach desired doneness. Place a serving of potatoes on each plate and top with an egg and some of the tomato mixture. 6 servings.
