Author Notes

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. —Katherine Turro
