1 tablespoon raw sugar
⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons water
Baked Eggs
2 cups steamed white rice
2 x 400-gram tins black beans, drained
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

Coriander Salsa
2 cups unsweetened Greek yoghurt

METHOD
Equipment: Grease a baking dish.
Preheat the oven to 180°C fan bake.
Pickles: Place the onion and chilli in a small bowl with the sugar, vinegar and water. Whisk to combine then refrigerate until ready to use.
Baked eggs: Place the rice in the baking dish and pat down gently to even the top. Stir together the beans, cayenne pepper, cumin, paprika, garlic and olive oil. Season and spread over rice. Bake for 10 minutes then remove from the oven and gently crack the eggs onto the beans. Bake in the oven for a further 10-15 minutes, or until the eggs are just cooked.
