400g can of Cirio peeled plum tomatoes
1tbsp capers
1tbsp of oregano
475ml of milk
2tbsp of olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Method
Coarsely chop the Cirio plum tomatoes and fry in a pan with olive oil, salt and pepper.
Add the capers and cook for a few minutes until a fairly thick sauce emerges. Season with a pinch of oregano and pour the sauce into a lightly-greased baking dish.
Meanwhile, pre-heat the oven at 180/200 degrees. Next, boil two eggs for 10 minutes, take out the shell and cut them into wedges.
Beat the remaining five eggs in a bowl adding the milk, and seasoning with salt and pepper. Pour in the oven dish and add the tomato sauce!
Place the dish in the oven and cook for 20 minutes. At this point, arrange the slices of boiled eggs on the gratin and continue cooking for another 10 minutes.
