How to prepare the peasant eggs recipe

1. First, season the tomato pulp with basil, a drizzle of oil and a pinch of salt. Pour it on the bottom of a baking dish suitable for cooking in the oven, then distribute the diced cheese. You can choose scamorza or an equally tasty cheese.

3. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20 minutes .
4. Serve the eggs hot, accompanying them with bread.
