Steps:
- For the eggs in purgatory: Pulse the bread in a food processor until finely ground. Add the oregano and a pinch of salt and process until the herbs are finely chopped. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and pulse until incorporated.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the crumbs and toast, stirring, until golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the Parmesan.
- Wipe the skillet clean and lower the heat to medium. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the red pepper flake, garlic and onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes and 1/2 cup water, cover partially and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
- Crack one of the eggs into a small bowl. Make a small indentation in the tomato sauce in the skillet, then gently pour the egg into the indentation. Repeat with the remaining eggs. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 5 to 7 minutes.
- For the spicy yogurt sauce: Meanwhile, add the yogurt, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes and lemon zest and juice to a small bowl and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the eggs and sauce in shallow bowls topped with the Parmesan crumbs and spicy yogurt sauce.
CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS
How can you make runny-yolked fried eggs even better? Give them edges of crisp, salty Parmesan. The addition takes just a few extra minutes and adds an incredible layer to a dish that's already deeply lovable. Make sure to skip preground Parmesan here: You'll want to shred the cheese yourself on the largest holes of your grater. And use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to fry the eggs. They may never come off a regular pan. Eat them alone, lay them over asparagus, or use them to top a sharp, lemony salad. When something's this perfect, it's hard to go wrong however you serve it.

Steps:
- Brush 1 teaspoon olive oil into a thin layer on the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan in an even layer covering the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes until cheese begins to melt.
- Crack eggs onto cheese, then cover pan and cook until eggs are starting to set but are not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Uncover and turn heat to medium-high to finish cooking eggs for another 1 to 2 minutes, until edges are crisp and golden brown. Make sure the cheese doesn't get too brown; if it goes past light golden, turn down heat. To serve, season eggs with salt and pepper to taste.
CRISPY PARMESAN EGGS WITH RADICCHIO AND PEA SALAD
The true stars of this main course salad are the Parmesan fried eggs, which have lacy, golden edges that are almost fricolike in their crunch. As the runny yolks leak onto the radicchio and vegetables, they mix with the lemony dressing, making the whole salad creamy and rich. It's best to shred the Parmesan yourself, using the largest holes on your grater; the preground stuff is usually too fine. Then be sure to use a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned cast-iron pan to fry the eggs; otherwise, they are liable to glue themselves onto a regular pan. And if you aren't an anchovy fan but still want to add a saline bite, a tablespoon of drained capers also works well.

Steps:
- Fill a bowl with water and ice. Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add peas and blanch for 1 minute. Drain the peas well and add to ice water to cool for a minute or two. Drain, pat dry, and halve the peas.
- Make the dressing: Combine lemon juice, garlic, salt, black pepper and red-pepper flakes in small mixing bowl. Whisk in olive oil, then taste and add more lemon juice or salt, or both, if needed. Set aside.
- Cook the eggs: Brush a thin layer of olive oil over the bottom of a 10-inch nonstick or well-seasoned cast-iron skillet and place over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 cup Parmesan in an even layer covering the bottom of the pan. Cook for 2 minutes until cheese begins to melt.
- Crack eggs onto cheese, then cover pan and cook until eggs are starting to set but are not cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Uncover and turn heat to medium-high to finish cooking eggs for another 1 to 2 minutes, until edges are crisp and golden brown. Make sure the cheese doesn't get too brown; if it goes past light golden, turn down heat.
- Season eggs with salt and pepper to taste. While eggs are cooking, in a large mixing bowl, toss remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan, snap peas, radicchio, olives, cherry tomatoes and cucumber with the dressing. Taste and add salt or lemon juice, if needed. To serve, spread radicchio salad on large serving platter and place eggs on top. Grind on more pepper and garnish with anchovy fillets if you'd like.
