I tried vegan Shakshouka during a recent visit to Tel Aviv and it was delicious. This simplified plant-based version of the original is a perfect side or breakfast dish.

Cooking Tips

1. For the most egg-like flavor use kala namak salt, also known as black salt, which has a sulphuric taste, just like eggs. It is often used in Indian cuisine.
