Share:
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- ¼ onion finely chopped, medium red or whole shallot
- 1 red pepper finely chopped
- 6 to 8 cherry tomato halved
- 1 to 3 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon harissa mild or spicy, plus more to taste
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon paprika I like smoked paprika here if you have it.
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper ground
- 1 pinch cayenne pepper optional, plus more to taste
- 1 ounce feta cheese crumbled, divided
- 1 to 2 egg
- 1 to 2 tablespoons parsley for garnish, chopped; or mint, cilantro, basil, or combination
Instructions
- Turn the heat on the pan to medium low and add the olive oil. When it is hot, add the chopped onion, stir, and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, chop the red pepper and mix it with the onions.
- Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and stir them into the shakshuka mixture.
- Finely mince the garlic and add it to the pan.
- Add the tomato paste, harissa, cumin, salt, paprika, black pepper,and cayenne, if using, and stir to mix.
- Let cook for a few minutes, then stir in half of the feta.
- Use your spoon or spatula to create a large indentation in the shaksuka mixture for each egg. Carefully, as low as you feel comfortable,crack an egg and gently split apart the shell to let the egg fall intact into the indentation you created.
- Cover the pan and continue to cook over medium-low heat until the egg sets to your desired consistency. You can finish your shakshuka under the broiler or break apart the yolks if you don't like runny eggs.
- To serve, sprinkle with the remaining feta and the chopped herbs.
Notes
- The beauty of making a shakshuka recipe for one person is that the timing works so you just add one thing to your pan, right after another. There's no need to prep anything - just chop as you go!
