Shakshouka (Arabic: شكشوكة; Hebrew: שקשוקה) (also shakshuka) is a dish from the Maghreb of Tunisian origins[1][2] consisting of eggs cooked in a sauce of tomatoes, peppers, onions, and spices (often including cumin, turmeric, and chillies), and usually served with white bread. The name shakshouka inTamazight means "a mixture".The most common Maghrebi variant includes onions and tomatoes over eggs, which may be scrambled, poached, or fried. It is similar to the Turkish dishmenemen, and the Mexican breakfast dish huevos rancheros.
Another variant consists of a mixture of cooked vegetables (spinach, celery, coriander, cauliflower, potatoes and green peas), and sometimes meat, similar to the French ratatouille.
Shakshouka is now a staple of Tunisian, Algerian, and Moroccan cuisines, and is also popular in Israel, where it was introduced by Tunisian Jews
