Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 10 minutes

Fry the bacon in a non-stick pan without any fat. In the meantime, whisk the eggs with a little milk, salt, pepper, and a pinch of paprika, and add a few chopped basil leaves. Remove the cooked bacon from the pan and set aside. Brown the tomatoes on both sides in the rendered fat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cut the bacon strips into small pieces and scatter them evenly over the tomatoes in the pan. Then add the eggs and cook on low heat (it goes faster with the lid on). Finally, scatter a few chopped basil leaves over the egg. Enjoy with fresh toast or a roll.
