Ingredients

For the Shakshuka

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red capsicum, finely diced
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tbsp Marmite
  • 1 can (400 g) crushed tomatoes
  • ½ cup water or veggie stock
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4–6 eggs

For the Marmite Drizzle

  • 1 tbsp Marmite
  • 1 tbsp hot water
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp olive oil

For Serving

  • Fresh parsley or coriander
  • Toasted wholemeal sourdough or pita
  • Feta (optional)

Method

  1. Build the Base
    Heat the oil in a wide pan. Add the onion and capsicum and sauté until soft and sweet. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
  2. Add the Spices
    Stir in paprika and cumin, to bloom the spices.
  3. Melt in the Marmite
    Add the tablespoon of Marmite and let it melt into the vegetables. It will give the base a deep, savoury richness.
  4. Add Tomatoes and Simmer
    Pour in the crushed tomatoes and water/stock. Season lightly. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until thick and saucy.
  5. Add the Eggs
    Use a spoon to make little wells. Crack in the eggs. Cover with a lid and cook on low until the whites are set but the yolks are still soft.
  6. Make the Marmite Drizzle
    Whisk together Marmite, hot water, honey, and olive oil. Adjust with more/less hot water to get a nice pourable consistency.
  7. Serve
    Spoon the shakshuka into bowls, drizzle generously with the Marmite sauce, and finish with herbs and feta
