Shakshuka



It can be said that Shakshuka is Middle Eastern Bibimbap. Because, it's a dish made with various vegetables and meat, but the main base is tomato.
This classic Israeli breakfast, a dish of Libyan origin, can be served as a main course for any meal of the day. This is basically an egg-based dish with tomato sauce, but I sliced fresh tomatoes instead of tomato sauce and added some tomato sauce to taste. I wanted to make it more healthy.
People usually eat it with feta cheese, olives, meat and various types of herbs, but I made it today by using the ingredients from my refrigerator. So, the remaining leftover bacon and parmesan cheese were selected. Great!
I served it as a brunch for my husband.
It is easy to make and delicious, I am going to make it often. 

Ingredients

1 Tb                     olive oil
1                          onion (chopped)
2 t                        minced garlic
3                          fresh tomatoes (chopped)
1/2 t                      cumin
1/2 t                      crushed pepper
1/2 t                      paprika 
1 Tb                      tomato paste
4                           eggs
2 strips                  bacon (chopped)
salt, pepper and dried parsley to taste

Directions

Heat a frying pan and add some oil and put chopped onion and minced garlic in and stir fry.
Add chopped tomatoes with salt, pepper, crushed pepper and paprika.
Cover and boil down over low heat until the sauce is reduced to half.
Cook the bacon in another pan while the tomatoes are cooking.
Break each egg into the tomato sauce and cook them sunny side up.
Sprinkle with bacon and dried parsley.
Serve it with bread.
