Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 onion (chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (large, crushed)
- 1 red bell pepper (deseeded and diced)
- 250 g lean sausages (of your choice, casings removed, or ground sausage meat)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon sweet paprika
- 3/4 -1 teaspoon chilli powder (mild - adjust to your taste)
- 1 pinch Cayenne pepper (optional)
- 24 ounces whole peeled tomatoes (14 oz tins, roughly chopped)
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 pinch salt
- 6 eggs (large)
- 1/4 cup flat leaf parsley (or cilantro/coriander leaves, chopped, to serve)
- 6 flatbread bread (to serve)
Steps
-
Heat oil in a large non stick pan or skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and transparent. Add garlic, bell pepper, ground sausage, cumin, paprika and chilli; cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic is soft and fragrant.
-
Add tomatoes and their juice into the pan with the tomato paste. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly (about 10-15 minutes). Season with salt to taste.
-
Evenly distribute small indents into the sauce with a spoon and crack each egg into them. Cover pan with lid and cook until yolks are just set (it takes about 5 minutes). Using a spoon, baste the whites of the eggs with the tomato sauce, being careful not to disturb the yolk. Sprinkle shakshuka with parsley (or cilantro) and serve with flatbread, for dipping.
