Spinach with Chickpeas and Fried Eggs Recipe - (4.8/5) image

Provided by รก-174535

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more
4 medium garlic cloves, thinly sliced, divided
8 cups spinach, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 cup onion, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 cans (15 ounce each) chickpeas, rinsed
5 canned whole tomatoes, crushed
3 cups (or more) vegetable broth
4 large eggs

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large heavy pot over medium heat. When oil begins to shimmer, add 1 garlic clove. Stir until beginning to turn golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Add spinach to pot. Toss to coat; season with salt and pepper. Cook until spinach is wilted but still bright green, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl; set aside. Wipe out pot. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in same pot over medium heat. When oil begins to shimmer, add onion and 3 garlic cloves. Cook, stirring often, until onion is softened, 3-4 minutes. Add cumin and paprika; stir until cumin is toasted and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add chickpeas and tomatoes; stir to coat. Cook until tomatoes start to caramelize and chickpeas begin to brown, 8-10 minutes. Add 3 cups broth; bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, occasionally mashing some chickpeas with the back of a spoon or a potato masher, until sauce is thickened, 15-20 minutes. Fold in spinach; simmer for flavors to meld, adding more broth by 1/4-cupfuls if too thick, 8-10 minutes. Pour oil into a large heavy skillet to a depth of 1/8" (about 1/4 cup). Heat until oil begins to shimmer. Crack 2 eggs into hot oil, spacing apart. Using a large spoon, carefully baste whites (not yolks) with oil until whites are set and edges are crunchy, lacy, and golden brown, 2-3 minutes (do not turn). Season eggs with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate and repeat with remaining 2 eggs. Spoon chickpea stew into bowls and top each with a fried egg.

This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning or a sauce of some kind.
