Directions

1. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the bangers cook until browned all over, remove and set aside.

2. Add a splash more oil if necessary, then add the onions and sauté over medium heat until translucent, for about 5 to 10 minutes.

3. Add the paprika and cumin, followed by the red pepper and jalapeño and cook for 3 to 5 minutes until softened.

4. Stir in the garlic and tomato paste and sauté for another 2 minutes.

5. Add the tomatoes, season well with sugar, salt and pepper.

6. Add the bangers, cover with a lid and leave to cook over a low heat for 15 minutes or until the bangers are cooked through.

7. Stir the baby spinach through and let it wilt.

8. To poach the eggs, bring 5cm-deep water to a rolling boil in a small saucepan, add the vinegar. Take a whisk and whisk all along the sides to create a whirlpool. Carefully break an egg into the centre of the whirlpool, turn down the heat and leave to poach.

9. Scoop out with a slotted spoon and repeat with all the eggs
