Shakshouka
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shakshouka (var. shakshoka, chakchouka) is an Tunisian and Israeli dish [1] made of cooked tomatoes, peppers, spices and eggs. It is cooked on low flame starting with the vegetables and spices; once these are cooked, the egg is added.
In Israeli cuisine, the dish is made of eggs, tomatoes, and onions or garlic. Shakshouka is typically eaten with a pita, like many other Middle Eastern dishes, or with white bread that is dipped in it. Though it is not common in Western culture, shakshouka is found worldwide in Israeli or Sephardic dairy eateries. Variations include Shakshouka with green peppers or other spices, or replacing the eggs with tofu. Spicyness may vary greatly between recipes.
