( Serves Size: 2 )
M I
1 tin Chopped tomatoes
4 Large eggs
2 tbsp Tomato puree
1 finely diced Red bell pepper
1 finely diced Yellow bell pepper
2 Ripe medium size tomatoes
1 medium diced White onion
1 tsp Chilli flakes
1 tsp Ground cumin
1 tsp Chilli powder
Half tsp Smoked paprika
Half tsp Paprika
1 crushed Garlic clove
To taste Salt
To taste Ground pepper
Optional topping Fresh coriander (cilantro)

Step 1

Prepare all vegetables and crush the garlic.

Step 2

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan. Fry the garlic, onions and diced peppers gently until just softened. Add the diced ripe tomatoes and cook until tender. Stir in all the seasonings, salt, pepper and tomato puree for 2–3 minutes until combined.

Step 3

Roughly blitz the mixture in a blender, then pour in the tin of cherry tomatoes and stir once more to incorporate.

Step 4

Using a spoon, create small wells in the sauce and gently crack the eggs into these spaces. Season the eggs with salt and pepper. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 3–5 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny.

Step 5

Serve immediately with freshly toasted bread, sprinkled with fresh coriander and extra chilli flakes to taste.

Recipe Notes
  • Adjust the spice level by adding more or less chilli flakes according to your taste. This shakshuka can also be prepared with other seasonal vegetables, such as courgettes or aubergine, for variation.

Cooking Tips
  • Cook the vegetables gently to allow the flavours to develop fully before adding the seasonings. Make the wells carefully when adding the eggs to prevent them from mixing into the sauce. Covering the pan ensures the eggs cook evenly while keeping the yolks runny. Serve immediately for the best texture.

Storage Instructions
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat gently on the hob, adding a splash of water to loosen the sauce if necessary. Eggs are best cooked fresh, so if storing, keep the sauce separate and add freshly poached eggs to the reheated sauce.
