Shashuka is an eggy delight, perfect for either breakfast, brunch or a light dinner too. It has it’s own variations the world over, but I’ve given it a slightly desi twist in the use of spices. Olive oil takes it’s taste to the next level, but if you don’t have it, you can use a refined oil of your choice. A complete meal, have this with toasts or breads.
