Pure deliciousness! Shakshuka is poached eggs in a tomato base with olive oil, peppers, onion, and garlic. Spices that are often added include cumin, paprika, and cayenne. The term 'shakshuka' in Arabic simply means 'mixture' which it is! Since tomatoes and peppers were brought back from the New World, this dish was not possible until the sixteen century and and later.
