## Ingredients

- 100 g - 150 g Italian pork sausage / pepperoni / luncheon meat (意式猪肉香肠/辣香肠/午餐肉) — per serving
  - Tip: For Italian sausage, choose varieties with fennel seeds; for spicy sausage, Chorizo is a good option.
- 1 can (400 g) Barilla Napoletana pasta sauce (百味来拿坡里意面酱) — per serving
  - Tip: This sauce already has tomato, onion, and herb flavors, so extra seasoning can be skipped.
- 3 - 4 pieces Eggs (鸡蛋) — per serving
  - Tip: Fresh, raw-consumption-grade eggs are best for achieving runny yolks.
- 0.5 pieces Bell pepper (甜椒) — per serving
  - Tip: Green or red bell peppers both work; julienne them for later use.
- 0.5 pieces Onion (洋葱) — per serving
  - Tip: Dice into uniform small pieces.
- 10 ml - 15 ml Olive oil (橄榄油) — per serving
  - Tip: Used for sautéing vegetables to add a Mediterranean flavor.
- to taste Bread (面包)
  - Tip: Sourdough, ciabatta, or thick-cut toast are recommended.

### Optional

- to taste Parmesan cheese (帕马森干酪)
  - Tip: Optional; adds saltiness and a creamy aroma.
- a pinch Fresh parsley (新鲜欧芹)
  - Tip: Optional; used for garnish and extra aroma.
- a pinch Crushed dried chili (干辣椒碎)
  - Tip: Optional; for those who enjoy spicy flavors.

## Tools

Wide skillet, Pot lid, Cleaver / chef's knife, Cutting board, Wooden spoon / spatula

## Method (10 steps)

1. **Prep the Ingredients** — Remove the casings from the Italian pork sausage; dice the onion; julienne the bell pepper.
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: Removing the casings makes it easier to crumble the sausage into bits.
   ![Step 1: Prep the Ingredients](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_1.jpg)
2. **Heat the Oil** — Pour 10ml - 15ml of olive oil into a wide skillet and heat over medium heat.
   - Duration: 1 min
   - Tip: Make sure the bottom of the pan heats evenly.
   ![Step 2: Heat the Oil](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_2.jpg)
3. **Brown the Meat** — Add the prepared sausage or luncheon meat and stir-fry until the edges turn golden and crispy (if using raw sausage, use a spoon to break it apart and cook until the color changes).
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: Slight charring brings out the aroma of the rendered fat.
   ![Step 3: Brown the Meat](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_3.jpg)
4. **Sauté the Vegetables** — Add the diced onion and julienned bell pepper to the pan and stir-fry with the meat for 4 - 5 minutes, until the vegetables soften and the onion turns translucent.
   - Duration: 5 min
   - Tip: Softened vegetables are key to letting the sauce absorb flavor.
   ![Step 4: Sauté the Vegetables](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_4.jpg)
5. **Simmer the Sauce** — Pour in the Barilla Napoli pasta sauce and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 2 - 3 minutes. (If the sauce looks too thick, add 15ml of water).
   - Duration: 3 min
   - Tip: A gentle simmer helps the flavors meld together.

6. **Make the Wells** — Use the back of a spoon to make 3 - 4 small wells in the sauce.
   - Duration: 30 sec
   - Tip: The wells should be deep enough to hold the eggs.
   ![Step 6: Make the Wells](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_6.jpg)
7. **Add the Eggs** — Carefully crack each egg into a well.
   - Duration: 1 min
   - Tip: Be gentle to avoid breaking the yolks.
   ![Step 7: Add the Eggs](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_7.jpg)
8. **Steam the Eggs** — Cover the skillet with a pot lid and steam the whites until set. Wait 3 - 5 minutes. Note: Check frequently. This step is done when the whites are opaque and set, but the yolks still wobble gently when you shake the pan (runny yolk stage).
   - Duration: 4 min
   - Tip: This is the most critical step; the heat determines how runny the yolk will be.
   ![Step 8: Steam the Eggs](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_8.jpg)
9. **Final Seasoning** — Turn off the heat. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, or crushed dried chili to taste.
   - Duration: 30 sec
   - Tip: The cheese melts and tastes better when it meets the heat.
   ![Step 9: Final Seasoning](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_9.jpg)
10. **Serve and Enjoy** — Bring the skillet directly to the table and serve with crusty bread to dip into the yolks and sauce.
   - Duration: 30 sec
   - Tip: Toast the bread until crispy for best results.
   ![Step 10: Serve and Enjoy](https://media.githubusercontent.com/media/zkeq/vibe-cook-backend/dataset/images/steps/breakfast_yi-shi-xiang-chang-bei-fei-dan/step_10.jpg)

## Tips

- Meat selection: Italian sausage is the most authentic (contains fennel seeds); luncheon meat offers a nostalgic salty flavor; spicy sausage (Chorizo) adds a smoky, spicy kick.
- Stay by the pan and check frequently while steaming the eggs. Turn off the heat as soon as the whites set to prevent the yolks from overcooking.
- For extra flavor, add a little minced garlic during the vegetable sauté stage.
