Shakshuka is a North African and Middle Eastern dish traditionally made with simmered tomatoes, peppers, onions, and spices, finished with eggs poached directly in the sauce.

My version stays true to the spirit of the dish but adds a little extra depth of flavour, without making it overly complicated to cook at home. It’s a hearty, healthy option for breakfast or brunch, and naturally low in calories — especially if you skip the toast (though I won’t judge if you don’t).

This recipe also freezes well. You can make it in batches and portion it out for later — just be sure to reheat it thoroughly before serving.
