Shakshuka with Eggplant is one of the flagship Israeli dishes that take America and the world by storm lately. Perfect for semi-vegetarian and pescetarian diets breakfast or dinner.

The base of the Shakshuka is a delicious combination of eggs and tomatoes seasoned with cumin and paprika. We are adding the eggplant to give it an amazing twist in taste and to make it a complete and satisfying meal. We use the eggplants to replace the traditional bread or pita on the side.

Another complete meal variation is the shakshuka with merguez.

BAKE EGGPLANT AND CUT VEGGIES

Wash the Eggplant and use a knife to make cuts on the eggplant before putting it in the over (the knife cuts are important so the eggplant will not explode). Bake it for about 20-25 min in high heat around 400f (220 c).

Finely chop onions
Slice 1 garlic clove
Cut red chilly to your liking. This is optional if you don't like spicy food don't add it if you like very spicy add more. It's a trial and error phase.
