About Shakshoka egg

Shakshuka is a flavorful Middle Eastern and North African dish consisting of poached eggs simmered in a spiced tomato and bell pepper sauce. Typically seasoned with garlic, paprika, cumin, and chili, it delivers a robust, savory flavor. Often garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro, it’s served with bread for scooping. Shakshuka is nutrient-rich, providing high-quality protein from the eggs, vitamins A and C from tomatoes and peppers, and antioxidants from its spices. It's relatively low in calories and carbs, making it a wholesome meal when paired with whole-grain bread or a side salad. However, sodium levels can be high if canned tomatoes are used, and added oils may increase its fat content. This dish is versatile, allowing for the inclusion of additional vegetables or spices to enhance both nutrition and taste. Shakshuka offers a hearty, healthy option for any time of day.
