Meanwhile, combine beef, garlic, ginger, cumin, paprika, harissa, coriander and mint. Season with a little salt and black pepper. When the onion is cooled add half to the mixture of meatballs. Mix well. Shape the mixture into small balls kefta, about 4cm in diameter.
Heat another tablespoon of oil in the pan and brown the meatballs. Transfer to a tagine or even a pot. Add the remaining onion sautéed with tomato puree and tomato paste. Bring to a boil, stirring all the time. Reduce heat and simmer the sauce for 10 minutes. Taste and season.
Put the meatballs in tomato sauce mixture, and cook uncovered for 10 minutes. Break the eggs over. Bake for about 10 minutes until the egg whites are cooked.
Sprinkle with chopped herbs and serve the tagine keftas egg with couscous or rice or even good homemade semolina bread as the tradition in Morocco.
