Bloody Mary Shakshuka
Shakshuka is a popular meal in my home, as it’s 1.) quick and easy to make, 2.) very affordable, 3.) involves runny egg yolks. It’s like the trifecta of awesome, really. Classic shakshuka is of Tunisian and Moroccan Jewish origin and is a dish of eggs poached in a cumin-spiced tomato sauce.
My twist on this classic is to flavor the tomato base with bloody mary ingredients instead – horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, celery seed, vodka, hot sauce – and garnish with celery leaves (use the rest of the celery to make my rigatoni bolognese recipe).
Put the skillet in the middle of the table and give everybody some crusty bread for dunking! Don’t forget to make some bacon in the oven to go along with the shakshuka!
