Shakshuka is a one pan dish consisting of eggs poached in a chunky tomato and bell pepper sauce with onion, garlic, and warm spices.
It is usually served in the pan right to the table with crusty bread to scrape up the sauce. It's a classic shareable brunch dish that is easy to enjoy and crave again.
Shakshuka is known to have originated in North Africa and Tunisia and now exists in most countries along the bottom of the Mediterranean sea.
Many regions share the dish, but it’s cooked differently everywhere you go.
The word shakshuka literally means “all mixed up” in Arabic. From country to country and kitchen to kitchen, this dish can be found with different ingredients, consistencies, spices, and nuances based on the cook who is making it. Because of this, Shakshuka is a symbol for cultural cooking creativity.
