About Shabshuka

Shakshuka is a vibrant, flavorful dish originating from North African and Middle Eastern cuisines. It is typically made by simmering eggs in a savory, spiced tomato and bell pepper sauce, often seasoned with garlic, onions, paprika, cumin, and chili. Some variations include feta cheese, fresh herbs, or vegetables like spinach or eggplant. Packed with protein from the eggs and rich in vitamins from the tomatoes and peppers, shakshuka is a nutrient-dense option that supports heart health and immune function. It’s naturally gluten-free and can be enjoyed as part of a balanced diet. However, its healthfulness can vary depending on the amounts of oil, salt, or cheese used, which may increase calorie and fat content. Typically served with crusty bread for dipping, it makes a wholesome breakfast, brunch, or dinner that’s as nourishing as it is comforting.
