Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons Butter can also use ghee
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 large Onion cut in half and then sliced
  • 2 Ripe Tomatoes of your choice sliced to about ½ inch rings
  • 2 slices Sourdough Bread (real sourdough bread is made from a starter culture and not commercial yeast)
  • A few good pinches of Sea Salt
  • A few pinches Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Add 3 tablespoons of butter into a large nonstick pan on medium-low heat. Once it’s almost all melted, add the onion and mix. You don’t want to burn the onion; it should start to turn brown and get really soft and sweet. The whole caramelization process will take about 25 minutes, with occasional mixing. Add a pinch of salt. If smoke starts rising and onions start burning, turn heat down a bit and add more butter if it needs it.
  • Once the onions have completely caramelized, remove them to another dish and add the tomatoes to the pan on medium heat. Add a pinch of salt. After about 1-2 minutes (or until tomato starts to char), flip the tomatoes to char the other side for another 30 seconds or so. Remove tomatoes to another dish.
  • Turn burner to medium (if you want a crispy edge, otherwise lower to med-low), melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the pan, crack in the eggs, giving them enough room in the pan. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until desired doneness.
  • Toast bread and place the onions, tomato, and egg on top. Enjoy it!
