Shakshuka



After seeing loads of this around in various blogs and magazines lately I thought it sounded like the sort of thing I would like to eat....and pretty healthy too! It's very easy and taste wonderful. I just made mine up from a few different recipes and it went something like this....

Saute a small onion which has been finely chopped with a few cloves of crushed garlic. Add in about 1-2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp cumin. Stir around a bit then add a can of chopped tomatoes and a couple of fresh tomatoes chopped up and a couple of red peppers which have been sliced not too thickly. Season with salt and pepper and simmer until the mixture thickens a bit.

Make about 4 dents in the sauce and crack an egg into each. Cover the pan and simmer until the egg whites are opaque but the yolks still soft. Yummy with some crusty bread to dip into the egg! 

Of note one of the recipes I have is by Peter Gordon and his has a bit of lamb mince in it....think I will try that next time.
