• Make a well for each egg on the tomato sauce and crack eggs inside.

• While the eggs are cooking, heat 1 olive oil in a small separate skillet add pine nuts and cook at medium heat for 3-5 minutes until golden brown. Watch pine nuts carefully as they can easily burn.

Steps:

• Mise en place:.
• Open the can of artichokes and drain, reserving the brine in a small bowl. Squeeze the artichokes to remove any excess moisture. Quarter the artichokes and set aside. Open the jar of sun-dried tomatoes and drain oil into separate bowl. Cut the tomatoes into strips and set aside. Spread potatoes out onto a baking sheet and pat them dry with a paper towel (this will ensure that they will get nice and crispy).
• Directions:.
• 1) Heat reserved sun-dried tomato oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
• 2) Add Diced Potatoes with Onions and sautee in oil until crispy, about 15-20 minutes.
• 3) While the potatoes are cooking, make the aoili. Measure out mayonnaise and pesto. Mix together with 1 tablespoon of reserved artichoke brine until smooth. The aoili should be the consistency of a creamy salad dressing. You can add more of the reserved brine to thin out the aoili to desired consistency.
• 4) When the potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, add the sliced sun-dried tomatoes and quartered artichoke hearts. Sautee for 1 or 2 more minutes until heated through.
• To serve:.
• Divide the artichoke hash into 4-6 individual portions and drizzle a small amount of the aoili over each portion. Serve immediately. If serving family style, leave aoili on the side with a serving spoon.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side down in a roasting tin, drizzle with some olive oil and season. Roast for 20 mins. Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, cook the onions in a medium ovenproof frying pan with the 2 tsp olive oil over a medium heat until they start to caramelise, about 8 mins.
• Once the onions have softened, add the peppers and season with salt, pepper and the pul biber. Peel the skins from the roasted tomatoes, then add these to the pan of onions and peppers along with all the resting juices.
• Crush the tomatoes roughly with a wooden spoon and cook for 5 mins over a medium-high heat. Add the wild garlic or spinach and wilt for a minute, then remove from the heat. Tuck the bread pieces in amongst the mixture, then create three gaps for the eggs using the spoon. Crack the eggs into the gaps, crumble over the feta and grate over the halloumi. Drizzle with some extra olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of pul biber.
• Turn the oven down to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and bake the shakshuka for 12-15 mins. The eggs should be cooked but runny in the middle, and the feta, halloumi and bread should be crisp and golden.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Spread out dry garbanzo beans on baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the sea salt.
• Roast in oven until golden brown and crispy, about 30 minutes.
• Bring water to a boil in a medium pot over medium-high heat.
• Pour cornmeal in slowly, stirring with a wire whisk. Add remaining 1 and 1/2 teaspoons sea salt. Whisk for 3 minutes as it thickens.
• Turn heat to low, and let cook uncovered for 30 minutes, whisking often.
• Remove pot of cooked polenta from heat. Stir in crumbled goat cheese and butter. Mix well.
• Pour Ragu sauce into a large pan. Stir in smoked paprika and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
• Break an egg into a cup. Hold the cup close to the pan and pour it gently into the simmering sauce. Repeat with the remaining 5 eggs. Cover the pan and let simmer until the whites of the eggs are set, about 5 minutes. Remove eggs from pan with a large spoon.
• To serve, spoon goat cheese polenta into a bowl and top with tomato sauce and poached egg. Sprinkle with roasted garbanzo beans and fresh cilantro or parsley leaves. Serve immediately.
