Shakshuka is proof that the simplest dishes are the best. Sweet peppers and onions cook down with cumin and paprika, tinned tomatoes turn into a rich sauce, and eggs poach gently on top. Serve straight from the pan with lots of bread.
Method
- Heat the oil in a wide frying pan over medium heat. Cook the onion and pepper with a pinch of salt for 8 minutes until soft and sweet.
- Add the garlic, cumin, paprika and chilli flakes and cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in the tomatoes, add the sugar and half a tin of water. Simmer for 8–10 minutes until thick. Taste and season.
- Make 4 wells in the sauce with the back of a spoon and crack an egg into each. Cover with a lid and cook for 5–7 minutes, until the whites are set but the yolks still runny.
- Scatter over the feta and herbs and serve straight from the pan with bread for dipping.
💡 VeggieTip notes
- For a bigger meal, add a drained tin of chickpeas or butter beans with the tomatoes.
- Vegan version: skip the eggs and feta; add chickpeas and top with tahini and a squeeze of lemon.
- Leftover sauce (without eggs) freezes well — make double.
