Shakshouka

'Shakshouka' means 'a mixture' in Arabic. Though it is a Northern African recipe but it is also very famous in Israel.It is nothing but baked egg with nice and spicy tomato sauce.So lets start preparing it.
Ingredients:
  • 6 eggs
  • 3 chopped tomato
  • 100gms smashed paneer
  • 1 medium size chopped onion
  • 2-3 teaspoon chopped garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1-2 teaspoon chopped coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper powder.
  • Salt as per taste.
  • 2 teaspoon white oil
Procedure:
  • Take a non stick pan and put it in medium heat.
  • Add oil and let it warm up.
  • Add chopped garlic and let it be light brown.
  • Add chopped onion and fry it for about 1-2min
  • Add chopped tomato and all the spices except pepper powder.
  • Mix it really well and put it on high heat till all the tomato smashed and become a smooth paste.
  • Add the smashed paneer and mix it really well.
  • Take a oven proof bowl and pour the sauce in it.
  • Take a spoon and make a small circle with it into the sauce so that it create some circular space in it.
  • Break one egg and pour it into the space.Do it very carefully so that the egg yoke remain intact.In the same way arrange all the eggs one by one into the bowl as shown in the picture.I have prepared this for six people so I took 6 eggs.You can add or remove number of eggs as per your requirement.In case of adding more egg requires making more sauce so increase that as well. 
  • Sprinkle some salt and black pepper powder on top of the eggs.
  • Preheat your oven at 350 degree Fahrenheit or 175 degree Celsius. 
  • Bake it for 10-15mins.
  • Sprinkle some chopped coriander after that.
  • Serve it with bread.
This is a very good breakfast.You can take it as snacks as well.But it is really easy and testy recipe and very helpful specially for bachelors.So friend enjoy your breakfast with Shakshouka :)
