Shakshuka (Gluten-free, Low-Carb, Whole30, Paleo)

Shakshuka is a popular mid-Eastern dish traditionally served with bread. It is a dish of poached eggs in spicy, tomato sauce. The eggs pair perfectly with that hot, seasoned tomato sauce. Not only is the breakfast dish lowcarb, it is also paleo and whole30 approved.

In a deep pan, add the ghee and let it melt. Add the onion and garlic to the pan on medium heat and let cook till fragrant. Then add the bell pepper and the tomatoes, let cook till soft (see Instagram video if you’re unsure). Season with cumin, chili flakes, salt and cracked pepper. Add the tomato sauce and let reduce till thick. Add the eggs on top of the sauce and let cook. (The whites will start to bubble). Once almost cooked, cover the pan for a couple of minutes until the rest of the whites are cooked. Remove from heat and add the coriander on top. Enjoy!
