Method

1. Make the salsa: roughly seed the tomatoes and cut them into 5 mm dice, seed and devein the jalapeño and chop it finely (keep the seeds if you like it hot), and finely chop the red onion. Toss with the coriander, the juice of half the limes and the salt, and leave for 10 minutes so the flavours mingle. Don't rub your eyes after handling the jalapeño.

   Add in this stepTomatoes (medium) 2Fresh jalapeños 1Red onion ¼Fresh coriander (cilantro), chopped 1½ tbspLimes ½Salt ¼ tsp

2. Heat oil in a 20 cm pan on medium heat and cook the chopped onion for 4 min until soft and translucent. Add the minced garlic, cumin and smoked paprika and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant, then pour in the fava beans with their liquid. Lower to medium-low heat and cook for 7 min, mashing most of the beans with a spatula or potato masher. Add the rest of the lime juice and the salt and turn off the heat when it is thick like refried beans and a spatula drawn across leaves the base visible for a moment.

4. Heat oil in a 24 cm non-stick pan on medium heat, crack in the eggs and sprinkle the whites with salt. Cook for 3 min, covering with a lid for the last minute so the white over the yolk sets too. The whites should be fully opaque and the yolks still wobbly.
