Okay my breakfast-for-any-meal-of-the-day-friends, I've got a hum dinger for ya, today. Spicy Turkish Style Baked Eggs (Shakshuka) are what you need to be eating right now. I'm popping in really quick today to deliver the goodness that is Spicy Turkish style baked eggs, or shakshuka. Or this could be your perfect weekend breakfast in bed. And this little breakfast of spicy eggs is so lovely in individual portions.
This dish, for me fits into the age old saying that "if you've got eggs, you've got dinner... errr... or breakfast." This spicy little one pot number is a 15 minute job guys. That's it. We aaaaallll got 15 minutes that we can spend making this spicy, fragrant, juicy with tomatoes and rich with egg yolks breakfast I mean dinner. Okay, so maybe I've been eating them for breakfast and dinner, with a few bites here and there for lunch.
In this pan of flavour boldness we've got my all time favourite spice booster harissa paste. The brand that I use is a rose harissa paste. I also threw in some smoky paprika, just because. But other than the harissa, everything in these baked eggs will be things that you already have on hand.
But, to be sure, I skipped the mild and creamy yogurt and went forfeta, so altogether more punch and flavour.
So, you guys, spicy Turkish style baked eggs with feta and the required hot sauce becausehot sauce is lyfe right now. Make em for breakfast, or they're super nourishing for dinner with some grilled whole grain bread.
That's it... I'm out!

Instructions
Pre-heat oven to 200c
Heat 1Tbsp of olive oil in a medium sauce pan. Add the diced onion and garlic and let soften for about 3

Add the tomatoes into the pan and let simmer for about 5 minutes.
If you are making individual eggs, then separate the sauce between your ramekins. If you are doing a
large one, leave in your pan.

to your liking.
Top with the parsley, lots of feta cheese and some hot sauce.

Hi Peter! So sorry I missed that step. Yes. You can add it with the chili and paprika or stir it in with the tomatoes. Either way works. I'll update the recipe to reflect that! 🙂

Unfortunately my system is intolerant to tomatoes. They give me migraines.
Do you have any ideas on good alternatives to tomato? They give such good flavor and texture, I wish I could have them.Reply
Debs says
Hi Wayne. You can skip a tomato sauce and make a red pepper sauce like this red pepper sauce. That should do the trick for you. Hope you love the recipe!
