Duck Eggs In Sausage Marinara Purgatory Recipes

EGGS IN PURGATORY

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.

EGGS IN PURGATORY WITH SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and almost cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir the bread into the sausage mixture and cook until lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the marinara sauce and 2 cups water; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium (or move the skillet to a cooler part of the campfire). Stir in the provolone, 2 tablespoons Parmesan and 1/4 cup basil.
• Use the back of a spoon to make 4 shallow wells in the tomato mixture; carefully crack 1 egg into each well. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 4 to 9 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan and 1/4 cup basil. Season with salt and pepper.
