4 large eggs

When you can see no more raw sausage meat add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Stir until the onion is translucent.
Add the olives, tomatoes, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper, then bring to a simmer.
Tip: You can add the olived whole or sliced.
Give the mixture one final stir then use the spoon to create 4 divots evenly spread through the tomato sauce. Crack an egg into each divot then sprinkle with the cheese. Place the lig on the skillet and simmer until the egg is cooked to your preference (running or hard). About 3 to 10 minutes.
When cooked scoop out the egg along with a quarter of the tomato and pork sausage sauce and serve in a bowl or deep plate.
