  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28 ounce) can whole tomatoes, drained
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup vegetable broth (or water)
  • 2 cups prepared chakalaka
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 3 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
  • 4 large brown eggs; freshly ground black pepper
  • Feta, crumbled;1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves
