1 diced green pepper
1 onion, finely chopped
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 teaspoon oregano
150 gr. Traditionally Cretan cheese

Implementation:
Sauté the onion and peppers in a pan on high heat for a few minutes until it gets soft. Add the tomatoes, salt & pepper, oregano, parsley, reduce the temperature, cover and cook for 15 minutes until the liquids in the pan are reduced. Break the eggs one by one first in a small bowl. With a spoon make small puddles in the sauce and pour in each egg. Cover again and leave it for another 7-10 minutes until the egg white is cooked. Remove it from heat, add the Traditionally Cretan cheese and a little more parsley.
