Method
1
Preheat oven to 180°C.

Cut tops off tomatoes and slice the bottom off the tomato to stop the tomato from tipping over. Scoop out and discard pulp and seeds. Place tomato shells on an oven tray lined with baking paper.

Heat oil in a medium saucepan. Cook chilli and garlic until soft. Stir in tomato juice. Cook for about 5 minutes or until thickened. Season. Put in jug for easy pour.

Spoon hot mixture into tomato shells leaving room for the eggs. Crack an egg into each one. Replace tomato tops.
5
Cook in the oven for about 15 minutes or until tomato is tender and egg is set. Remove tops. Sprinkle with jamon and cheese.
