Recipe byThe ZestyPlate Kitchen
Eggs poached in a spiced tomato sauce with celery, red pepper and cumin, finished with spinach and feta. A hearty one-pan dish.
A generous, vegetable-heavy version of shakshuka, with eggs baked into a cumin-spiced tomato sauce alongside peppers, celery and spinach, then scattered with feta. Everything happens in one pan, which makes it an easy brunch or light supper. Have some bread ready for mopping up the sauce.

Preparation
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a pan over medium to high heat.
- Tip in the chopped onion, garlic, celery and red pepper and stir for 5 minutes.
- Stir through the cumin, salt, pepper and tomato sauce, then cook for another 7 minutes.
- Crack in the eggs, cover the pan and cook for 8 minutes, dropping in the spinach and feta right at the end.
- Serve with fresh bread.
Tips from the ZestyPlate Kitchen
- Cook the vegetables down properly at the start so they turn soft and sweet before the eggs go in.
- A quick toast of the cumin wakes up its warm, earthy smell.
- Hold the spinach and feta back until the last minute so the leaves only just wilt.
- Put a lid on the pan to steam the eggs to the set you prefer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Of course. Courgette, mushrooms or more peppers are all good additions. Cook whatever you add until soft before the eggs go in.
It stacks up well. You get plenty of vegetables, protein from the eggs and a lot of flavour without many calories.
Warm pita, flatbread or a crusty sourdough all do the job of scooping up the sauce and soft eggs.
