Heat a large fry pan with a medium heat and add in 1/4 cup (60 ml) olive oil

After a couple of minutes, add in the chopped onions, bell peppers, and cloves of garlic, mix together, then mix every 2 to 3 minutes so everything evenly sautés

After 12 to 15 minutes and the vegetables are lightly browned, season with salt & pepper, mix together, and then transfer the vegetables into a large serving dish
-
Heat the same fry pan with a medium heat, and add in 1/4 cup (60 ml) olive oil

After a couple of minutes, crack in the eggs, all in a single layer and evenly spaced out, and fry to your liking, I like a slightly crispy egg white with a creamy yolk, once fried, season with salt & pepper, and add the egg over the vegetables

To make the garlic sauce, add the chopped garlic into a mortar, along with the chopped parsley and a pinch of salt, using a pestle, pound down on the ingredients until you get a paste-like texture, then add in olive oil and mix together
