"On Sunday's we brunch, and what better day to make Shakshuka."
I know, I know it's Monday. I forgot to post this recipe yesterday, anyway... so let's get to it. Shakshuka is a popular go-to breakfast and brunch recipe that features poached eggs in a delicious, spiced tomato-based sauce.
The dish originates from around Northern Africa and the Middle East and has become very popular in recent years. The word 'shakshuka' derives from Arabic, literally translating to "all mixed up" and is pronounced as "shack-shoe-kah."
I will be sharing my go-to 3 versions of this meal, from the fastest as traditional as it gets recipe, to a recipe that's a bit of a twist and really having it live up to it's "all mixed up" name.
I love how this meal is so quick to whip up and really makes breakfast extra special. It's best to make this in a nonstick pan, it should be served immediately, and you can be as flexible as you want with the ingredients.
Hey, I’m Zainab — cooking (and eating) is how I embrace my chubby cheeks, and bring a little joy to the kitchen! I love blending flavours, spices, and cultures to create recipes that are as fun to make as they are to eat. Think bold spices, fusion twists, and meals that are fancy enough to impress but easy enough to whip up any day of the week.
Every recipe I share is something we’ve actually eaten at home — no food styling fakery here (well, maybe just a bit of garnish magic). My step-by-step photos and videos walk you through every stage, so whether you're a kitchen newbie or a seasoned pro, you’ll plate up something delicious and beautiful in no time.
