Mild shakshuka

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 red pepper, diced
  • 400 g tinned tomatoes, no added salt
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp mild paprika
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 wholemeal pittas

Contains: Egg, Wheat

Method

  1. Soften the onion and pepper; add the tomatoes and spices and simmer 15 minutes until thick.
  2. Make four hollows and crack in the eggs; cover and cook 8 minutes until the whites and yolks are set.
  3. Serve with pitta fingers for dipping. Chop your child's egg; salt the adults'.
Safety: Eggs set right through for your child, no runny yolk. Serve your child's portion first, then salt the rest for the adults.
Storage: Sauce keeps 3 days in the fridge.
Tip: Eggs poached in tomato — a Middle Eastern breakfast that works as dinner. Cook the eggs firm for the child.
