- Cut tomatoes in halves and add them to the pan, salt and pepper to taste
- Fry lightly on both sides without letting the tomatoes burn
- When the tomatoes are soft, lift them onto a plate and keep warm while you fry 4 eggs in the remaining cumin and oil
- Serve immediately with 2 tomatoes for each egg
