Instructions
Prepare the Tomato Base
Preheat the oven to 425°F or 220°C. In a shallow oven-safe dish or au gratin pan, combine the cherry tomato polpa, cherry tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, smoked paprika, black pepper, oregano, chili, and salt. Stir gently and spread into an even layer.
Roast the Tomatoes
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until the cherry tomatoes begin to burst and the sauce thickens slightly.
Add the Broccolini
Scatter the broccolini evenly over the tomato mixture. Return to the oven for 4 to 5 minutes, just until tender and still bright green.
Add the Eggs
Using the back of a spoon, make four small wells in the sauce. Crack one egg into each well. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes, until the egg whites are just set and the yolks remain soft.
Finish and Serve
Sprinkle feta over the top, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately, straight from the pan.
