Shakshouka image

Derived from the Arabic "shakshek," which means to shake, this Gulf breakfast favorite calls for a flavor combination of baked eggs nestled on a bed of spicy, aromatic tomatoes. It's just the thing for feeding a brunch crowd.

Yield Makes 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons ghee, plus more for brushing
10 ounces baby spinach
1 small onion, chopped (about 2 cups)
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups chopped tomatoes (from 5 medium tomatoes)
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
4 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Chopped fresh cilantro, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 2 teaspoons ghee in a large skillet over medium-high. Gradually add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate; set aside.
  • Wipe out the skillet and heat 3 tablespoons ghee over medium-high. Add onion and cook until very soft and translucent, 10 to 12 minutes. Add garlic and cook 5 minutes more. Add tomatoes and red-pepper flakes and cook until tomatoes have broken down and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat; set aside.
  • Brush four 6-ounce shallow baking dishes with remaining 1 teaspoon ghee. Divide spinach equally among them, spreading evenly. Top with tomato mixture, creating a well in the center. Crack an egg into each well. Season egg with salt and black pepper.
  • Place baking dishes on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Bake until the egg yolks are soft and egg whites are opaque, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • Serve topped with a pinch of black pepper and cilantro, if desired.

I'm not a huge fan of shakshouka, but this recipe was pretty good. The sauce was flavorful and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I would definitely make it again.

This shakshouka recipe was a bit of a disappointment. The sauce was bland and the eggs were overcooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
