Stir every so often.
Add the garlic.
Cook for another 2 mins.
Throw in the peppers.
Cook over a medium heat, covered, for around 5 mins, until the peppers are tender.
Stir every so often.
Mix in a little salt, some black pepper, bay leaves, thyme and the oregano, if needed.
Tip in the courgettes and aubergine, mix well.
Heat over medium heat, covered, for 10 mins.
Stir in the tomatoes, cover.
Cook for 20 mins.

Crack your eggs over your pisto – try not to break the yolks.
Heat in your sauce on medium heat for 5-6 mins till your eggs are cooked through but still little soft.
