Shakshouka (Algerian bell peppers & eggs)Shakshouka

Algerian bell peppers & eggs

Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Stir in paprika; cook slightly to color the oil, about 10 to 15 seconds. Add onions and garlic; sauté until the onions are translucent but not browned (about five minutes). Add diced tomatoes; cook for three to four minutes to reduce liquid. Add the bell peppers, water, salt and black pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for about ten minutes. Add more water if necessary if mixture becomes dry. Using a spoon, form four small indentations in simmering peppers. Slide one egg into each indentation. Cover and simmer for another ten minutes, or so until eggs are cooked through.

 

Suggestions: Serve with pita bread or hot cooked white rice.
