Rustic Croatian Simmered Eggs Salad

Assemble the ingredients: eggs, stock, tomato, garlic, salt, water, olive oil.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the eggs and cook until simmered.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Croatian flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Croatian accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
