Hey everyone! I just made this delicious Shakshuka for brunch and it turned out amazing. It's a Middle Eastern dish with eggs poached in a spicy tomato sauce, perfect for a flavorful weekend meal. Here's how I made it:
Ing
redients:
Ing
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4-6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley, for garnish
- Crumbled feta cheese, for serving (optional)
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic, cumin, paprika, and chili powder. Cook for another minute, until fragrant.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, until the sauce has slightly thickened.
- Using a spoon, create small wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each well. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.
- Cover the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
- Sprinkle chopped cilantro or parsley over the top, and crumble feta cheese, if using.
- Serve the Shakshuka hot, straight from the skillet, with crusty bread or pita for dipping. Enjoy!
