Ingredients
Pre-made Tomato sauce (tomatos, basil, garlic, chilli, peppers, tinned tomatoes)
3-4 Eggs
Handful of Coriander
Bagels / Toast
Preparation
Step 1
The evening before you plan on having the Shakshuka - make some tomato sauce (see our recipe here) or defrost some if you've already got some at hand.
Step 2
Pre-heat oven to 160c. Pour some of the tomato sauce into an oven proof round casserole dish. There should be enough sauce to cover at least the bottom inch of the dish.
Step 3
Crack open an egg into a bowl. Use a large spoon / wooden spoon to create holes in the sauce. Pour the egg into the hole. Repeat this for each egg. Place dish with lid on into the preheated oven at 160C for 8 - 10 minutes.
Step 4
Take the dish out of the oven. An optional step is to add coriander. It definitely makes it look nicer in pictures!
While I use the oven, this recipe could also be cooked in a deep frying pan.
