Shakshuka
Shakshuka (also spelled shakshouka) is a popular dish of poached eggs in a stew of tomatoes, olive oil, peppers, onions, and garlic, typically spiced with cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper. It is a hearty and flavorful one-pan meal that is enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
The origins of Shakshuka are a subject of debate among food historians, but it is generally considered to be a Tunisian dish, with roots in North Africa. It is believed to have spread to the Middle East with Jewish immigrants from the region in the mid-20th century, becoming particularly beloved in Israel. The name itself is thought to come from an Arabic dialect word for "all mixed up" or "shaken."
