Ingredients:

- 2 teaspoons salt, divided
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 carrot, peeled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 2 small green peppers, chopped
- A handful of cherry tomatoes, halved
- 4 eggs
Instructions:
- Boil the Potatoes and Broccoli:
- In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the diced potatoes and boil for about 10-12 minutes, until tender.
- During the last 3 minutes of boiling, add the broccoli florets to the pot and cook until just tender but still bright green.
- Drain the potatoes and broccoli and set them aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables:
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Add the sliced carrot, red pepper, and green peppers. Cook for another 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add Cherry Tomatoes:
- Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for about 2-3 minutes, allowing them to soften and release their juices.
- Combine Everything:
- Add the boiled potatoes and broccoli to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Gently stir to combine everything, making sure the vegetables are evenly coated in the oil and flavors.
- Cook the Eggs:
- In a separate pan, fry the eggs to your preferred doneness (sunny side up, over easy, etc.). Alternatively, you can poach the eggs if you prefer a lighter texture.
- Season and Serve:
- Sprinkle the dish with the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and adjust the seasoning to taste. Serve the vegetable mix on a plate, topping each portion with a fried egg.
