Step 1
Heat olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium. Add diced onion and cook until soft, ~4 minutes.
Step 2
Pour in tomatoes, add cumin and chili flakes, then stir. Simmer until slightly thickened, ~4 minutes.
Step 3
Make 4 shallow wells in the sauce. Crack an egg into each well without breaking the yolk.
Step 4
Cover the skillet and cook over medium until whites are set but yolks still jiggle, ~4 minutes.

Remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper, then tear bread and serve alongside.
