  • Set aside on kitchen paper, dabbing off any leftover juices. Grate the onion and do the same.

  • Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick frying pan, tip in the onions and cook over a medium heat for 5 mins, stirring until soft and lightly golden.

  • Stir in the potatoes and mix. Fry the mixture in an even layer for about 15 mins until cooked and golden underneath. Meanwhile, heat the grill to high.

  • Slide the pan under the grill and cook for 5 mins or until golden on top. Using a spoon, make four dips in the surface of the cake. Crack the eggs into the dips, season and scatter over the chilli.

  • Cover with a lid or baking sheet, place back on the hob and cook for 4-5 mins, depending on how you like your eggs cooked.

  • Serve straight from the pan, with a sprinkling of coriander if you have it, and lots of crusty bread.
