Chakchouka image

This is recipe can also be spelled 'Shakshouka'. It's a Tunisian dish that's similar to the Latin American dish Huevos Rancheros, and it's most often eaten for breakfast or lunch. Adjust the garlic and hot peppers to suit your own palate.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 Tbsp olive oil
1 1/3 c chopped onions
1 c bell pepper, thinly sliced (any color)
2 clove garlic, minced
2 1/2 c tomatoes, chopped
1 bay leaf
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp turmeric
1 small chili pepper (hot or mild, your choice), seeded and finely chopped
4 large eggs

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, bell peppers, and garlic; cook and stir until the vegetables have softened and the onion has turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • 2. Combine the tomatoes, bay leaf, cumin, paprika, salt, turmeric, and chile pepper into a bowl and mix briefly. Pour the tomato mixture into the skillet, and stir to combine.
  • 3. Simmer, uncovered, until the tomato juices have cooked off, about 10 minutes. Make four indentations in the tomato mixture for the eggs. Crack the eggs into the indentations. Cover the skillet and let the eggs cook until they're firm but not dry, about 5 minutes.

This was a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. I served it with some crusty bread and it was perfect.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chakchouka turned out too watery. I think I might have added too much tomato sauce.

This was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less chili pepper.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, so I omitted the chili pepper. It was still very flavorful.

I've made chakchouka before, but this recipe is by far the best. The addition of the roasted red peppers and feta cheese really takes it to the next level.
