This dish was absolutely delish!!! I also echo Bob's comments, x2
 
made this dish for supper the other night along w/ some oven fries .Fantastic!!!
 
I love this because its different! There is a dinner version thats meatballs in a similar sauce with the eggs done the same way at the end. But its Moroccan ,mostly done with lamb as a sort of a tagine. I cook it from time to time. 

The spelling I have ( like I  care about spelling) for Ahrons dish is Chakchouka. I have it with variations,zucchini ,eggplant, mergez sausage but all the same in principle.

Pretty good breakfast if you had a big one the night before.

 I have that cookbook I went to its launch here in Sydney.He signed my copy & I gave him a jar of my harrissa that I  used to make for restaurants.

The launch was at a restaurant & they served food from the TV series/book. It was a great night out .He is a really down to earth regular guy & funny in an unscripted way.

If I  can find some decent mergez sausage I will do the Shakshuka that way & post it.

Seems like we have very similiar tastes

Just gave this a whirl today.

replaced the cumin with seafood seasoning from Pensy's, and used sambal (chili pepper paste) instead of the peppers.  It was awesome and will certainly be a repeat player here.  Thanks!
