Shakshuka

This is embarrassing, but I believed I came up with this egg dish. Turns out, it was always around and it's Shakshuka. Well, a kind of Shakshuka. Either way, it's one of my favourite breakfast/lunch dishes. Here's mine.

Ingredients:
Eggs - 4
Tomato - 3 chopped
Onion - 1 chopped
Garlic - 3 cloves
Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Cumin powder - 1/2 tsp
Coriander leaves to garnish

Method:
1. Saute onions along with garlic in hot oil till onions are soft.
2. Add the spice powders and salt and saute.
3. Add tomatoes and cook for 15 mins.
4. Create 4 wells and crack an egg each into them.
5. Cover with lid and let it cook in low flame for 4-5 mins. Do not take lid off till you're ready to eat. This way the yolk will be cooked enough and not too runny.
6. Garnish with coriander leaves when you open the lid and ready to eat.

Serve with toast or even roti. Heck, I'd eat it with rice too.
