Ciara's Shakshuka

Thermos Taste for Adventure

Growing up in the Middle East has allowed me to appreciate different spices and dishes from a young age. Shakshuka is one of my favourite dishes as it's so simple, versatile and perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner. To make the dish vegan, remove the eggs and replace with falafel or guacamole.
