Ingredients:
6 eggs
500g tomato purée
250g smoked scamorza cheese
2 tbsp grated cheese
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 dried chili pepper
fresh basil, to taste
fine salt, to taste

Preparation:
Mix the tomato purée with the extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Tear some fresh basil leaves with your hands and add them to the sauce together with the chopped dried chili.
Cut the scamorza into even cubes.
Pour the sauce into a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Scatter the cubes of scamorza over the sauce.
Crack the eggs one at a time directly into the dish, keeping them slightly apart.
Season the yolks with a pinch of salt, add the grated cheese, and a few more basil leaves.
Cover the dish with foil and bake at 180°C (350°F) for 15 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for another 15–20 minutes, until the whites are set and the cheese is melted.
Serve hot and gooey, with plenty of bread to scoop up all the sauce.
