I've always ordered Shakshuka on the menu at restaurants, but never made it for myself as I was convinced I couldn't master the same depth of flavor and spices. That is until I made this one! This recipe is inspired by the Shakshuka with Feta recipe from The New York Times by Melissa Clark.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 large red bell pepper
- 1/2 large yellow onion, diced
- 1 carrot, peeled and sliced in circles
- 1 clove crushed fresh garlic
- 14 ounce crushed canned tomatoes
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup goat cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
- 2 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon black ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
