Step 1
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Add diced onion, cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Add ground lamb and ras el hanout. Cook, breaking up with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.
Step 3
Pour in crushed tomatoes. Stir, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
Step 4
Make two shallow wells in the sauce. Crack eggs into each well. Cover skillet and cook until whites set, yolks still jiggle, ~3 minutes.

While eggs cook, wrap pita in foil and warm in a 350°F oven or toaster oven for 2 minutes.
