Ingredients
3 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 red pepper, quartered and sliced
1 yellow pepper, quartered and sliced
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground coriander
2 x 400 g tinned tomatoes, chopped
6 large eggs
butter for spreading
2 tbsp flat leaf parsley, chopped
Method
- Heat the olive oil in a large lidded cast iron frying pan. Fry the onion and peppers over a medium heat for 15 minutes or until soft and sweet.
- Add the garlic and spices and stir over a low heat for 2 minutes.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season to taste.
- Make six hollows in the sauce and break an egg into each one. Cover the pan and cook over a very low heat for 10 minutes or until the whites have set, but the yolks are still runny.
- While the eggs are cooking, toast the bread to your liking and butter generously.
- Sprinkle the shakshuka with parsley and serve immediately with plenty of toast on the side for dipping and scooping.
