Shakshuka with Peppers and Tomatoes

dairy-freegluten-freepescatarianvegetarian

Ingredients

Method

1

Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook for 6-7 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

2

Stir in the cumin, smoked paprika, and cayenne (if using), cooking for 30 seconds.

3

Add the crushed tomatoes and salt. Bring to a simmer and cook uncovered for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.

4

Using a spoon, make 6 small wells in the sauce. Crack an egg into each well, cover the skillet, and cook for 6-8 minutes over low heat, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.

5

Sprinkle with fresh herbs and serve immediately, straight from the skillet.

Serve with warm pita or crusty bread for scooping.

Notes

  • Cover with a lid rather than foil so you can check the eggs without losing heat.
  • For firmer yolks, cook 2-3 minutes longer.
