Start your day with a flavorful twist on traditional toast by making Shakshouka Toast. This Middle Eastern-inspired dish features a spicy tomato and bell pepper sauce topped with poached eggs, crumbled feta, and fresh herbs, all served on crusty sourdough bread.

Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Shakshouka:

  • 4 slices crusty sourdough bread
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 small onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup crushed tomatoes
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)

For Serving:

  • 2 large eggs
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Shakshouka: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion until softened, then add garlic and bell pepper. Cook for 3–4 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes, paprika, cumin, chili flakes, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 5–7 minutes.
  2. Cook the Eggs: Crack eggs into the sauce. Cook gently over low heat until whites are set but yolks remain runny, about 5–6 minutes.
  3. Assemble: Toast sourdough slices. Spoon shakshouka mixture with a poached egg onto each toast. Sprinkle with feta and herbs. Serve warm.

Notes

  • You can scramble the eggs into the sauce if preferred.
  • Add spinach or kale for extra greens.
  • Great with a drizzle of tahini or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
