Shakshuka For One | Get Cracking

Step 1

In a small frying pan (about 8 inches/20 cm), combine pasta sauce, paprika, and cumin, if using. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Step 2

Using the back of a spoon, make a couple indentations in the sauce. Carefully crack an egg into each indentation without breaking the yolks. Spoon a little of the sauce over the egg whites; this will help them cook.

Step 3

Cover the frying pan with a lid and simmer gently until the eggs are cooked as desired, 3 to 5 minutes. Traditionally the eggs are served with cooked whites and runny yolks, but cook them to your liking.

Step 4

Sprinkle pepper, cheese and herbs over top. Remove from heat and serve.
