Shakshuka is a popular Middle Eastern and North African dish. It features a hearty, spiced tomato sauce base, often with onions, garlic, bell peppers, and a mix of warm spices like cumin, paprika, and sometimes chili. Into this simmering sauce, eggs are cracked and poached directly. The dish is typically garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley and served hot, often with a side of bread for dipping. Shakshuka is known for its bold flavors and is commonly enjoyed as a breakfast or brunch dish, but it can also be a satisfying meal at any time of the day.
