Traditional One-Pan Breakfast Shakshuka
A warming North African breakfast dish that's become my weekend favourite. This one-person version of shakshuka features eggs gently poached in a rich, spiced tomato sauce, perfect for dunking crusty bread. It's the ideal breakfast when you want something a bit special without too much fuss. I love making this cosy dish on lazy Sunday mornings!

Method
0 of 6 done- Heat the olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, cooking them gently for about 5 minutes until the onion becomes soft and translucent.
- Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook for another minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it brown.
- Pour in the tinned tomatoes and add the smoked paprika, cumin, and chilli powder. Season with salt and pepper, then let the sauce simmer for about 10 minutes until it starts to thicken.
- Using the back of a spoon, make two wells in the sauce and carefully crack an egg into each one. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
- Remove the pan from the heat and sprinkle over the crumbled feta cheese and fresh coriander. Let it rest for a minute to allow the feta to slightly melt.
