Shakshuka Recipe

Bring the taste of Africa to your homw with this versatile, quick, and easy Shakshuka recipe. Enjoy Shakshuka as a breakfast or a brunch. Shakshuka is a popular Middle Eastern and North African dish that dates back many years in an empire that lasted 600 years, called the Ottoman Empire, and only came to an end in 1922. Now called the Turkish Republic.

The dish's name, shakshuka, essentially means, all mixed up, and that is what it essentially is. When immigration to Israel from North African countries was in its prime, the immigrants suffered financial hardships and this hearty and affordable dish, containing eggs, vegetables and bread became a household favourite.

You'll find Shakshuka in Libya and Tunisia, and it's become a staple dish in Israel. And now, thanks to this Shakshuka recipe, you will find it in many homes around the world. You can this recipe by flavouring the simple tomato sauce with whatever you have available in stock - curry powder, pesto or fresh herbs.
