Ingredients
Method
  • 1
    Heat the olive oil and butter in a casserole over medium heat.
  • 2
    Add the leeks and cumin seeds with a pinch of salt and cook with the lid on for 5 to 7 minutes until soft.
  • 3
    Add the sliced jerky and cook for another 2 minutes so it softens and perfumes the butter.
  • 4
    Stir in the spinach until wilted.
  • 5
    Make four wells and crack in the eggs. Replace the lid and cook until softly set.
  • 6
    Finish with chilli flakes and black pepper.
Tip: Slice the jerky very thinly so it rehydrates properly in the pan. Any Mason's Meats jerky works in place of Beef Crumble.
