In Tunisia, in Morocco, in Israel, breakfast comes in one hot pan. It goes right to the table.
This is shakshuka. First, cook onions and peppers in a pan. Cook them soft.
Add tomatoes. Cook them slowly. The sauce turns red and thick. It smells warm and rich.
Now, make small holes in the sauce with a spoon. Break an egg into each hole. Cover the pan. Wait a few minutes.
The eggs turn soft and golden. Bring the hot pan to the table. Everyone takes bread and dips it in. Nobody needs their own plate.
