Step 1
Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 2
Pour in tomatoes and a pinch of salt. Simmer 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly.
Step 3
Create 4 small wells in the sauce. Crack an egg into each, keeping yolks intact. Cover and cook 5–6 minutes until whites set but yolks jiggle.
Step 4
While eggs cook, toast bread until edges are golden and surface crisps.
Step 5
Scatter basil over the skillet. Serve with toasted bread alongside for dipping.
