Description

Shakshuka is a versatile dish of eggs poached in spicy tomato sauce. We made our shakshuka with roasted mushrooms and eggplant and creamy fresh mozzarella cheese. Ideal to serve for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

  • 1/8 tsp salt

  10. Make a well for each on the tomato sauce and crack eggs inside. Place mozzarella rounds around the tomato sauce

Notes

THIS SHAKSHUKA CAN BE MADE ON A 12 INCH SKILLET OR IN AN SMALL SKILLET, COOKING TWO EGGS AT A TIME.
SHAKSHUKA IS BEST WHEN EATEN HOT WITH A CRUSTY BREAD OR MATZA FOR PASSOVER.
SAUCE AND ROASTED VEGETABLES CAN BE MADE AHEAD (2-3 DAYS) AND MIXED TOGETHER RIGHT BEFORE ADDING THE EGGS AND THE CHEESE
