Ingredients

4 oz sujuk sausage (or Turkish sucuk), sliced 1/4 inch thick
4 large eggs
2 tsp olive oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
2 pita bread, warmed
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

1

Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tsp olive oil, then add 4 oz sliced 1/4 inch thick sujuk sausage (or Turkish sucuk) in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the edges are browned and crispy and the fat has rendered.
2

Push the sujuk to the edges of the pan. If the pan looks dry, there is no need to add more fat - the sujuk renders enough oil. Crack 4 large eggs directly into the center of the pan.
3

Season the eggs with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Cook over medium-low heat until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes for sunny-side-up, or cover the pan for 1 minute for over-easy.
4

Sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley over the top and add 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional) if using.
5

Serve directly from the pan with 2 warmed pita bread on the side.
