Shakshuka is a traditional Mediterranean dish – this version is a very simplified one using simple cupboard ingredients. Perfect for throwing together when you’re not feeling like cooking.
This recipe is for a small serving of only 180kcal, adjust amounts as desired to make it a full main meal! The amounts absolutely do not need to exactly match these – they are I served it with light mozzarella on the side (additional 71kcal) but it stands well on its own.
Ingredients:
- 200g Tinned chopped tomatoes (38kcal)
- 1/2 (~52g) Onion diced (21kcal)
- 1 (~55g) Egg (77kcal)
- 10g Greek Feta (32kcal)
- 1tbsp Tomato Puree (12kcal)
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- Splash of water for sauteing
- 1 clove of Garlic, minced
- Chili (flakes or fresh) to taste
- Twig of Fresh Parsley (fresh or dried)
Method
- Heat a splash of water along with the garlic, onion and chili in a small frying pan, medium heat. Cook until onions have softened and fragrant.
- Add the tinned tomatoes, tomato puree and parsley, as well as a pinch of salt and some pepper.
- Let it bubble away and reduce until it starts thickening (8-15 minutes), stirring frequently.
- Make a space in the sauce and crack the egg into this. Salt and Pepper egg as desired. Crumble Feta all over.
- Let it cook until the egg white is mostly firm and the yolk still runny.
- Transfer onto a plate and enjoy! Garnish with fresh Parsley if you wish.

Hey, I discovered your blog via reddit and just wanted to give some quick website feedback!
I wanted to post some of your recipes to my Pinterest, but when I tried to do that from my phone, it doesn’t let me use your beautiful photos for it! I know I’m less likely to get around to cooking this recipe if I don’t see the recipe, and I’m sure people are less likely to follow my pin and end up discovering your page if it doesn’t have the picture! You may want to consider seeing what’s causing the Pinterest app to not see pictures on your site. If possible, I’d especially suggest the cool setup that many blogs have where there’s a pin link right on the picture, as it makes it even easier to save recipes!
Regardless, your recipes look amazing, and the calorie counts are even more awesome, so please keep sharing!
Hey! Thank you so much for letting me know about this issue – really helpful. I’ve just added a share section that I’m hoping should do the job temporarily until I’ve got something more solidly set up. Would you mind letting me know if it’s working like it should for you?
Thank you so much again! 🙂
