INGREDIENTS

  • 1 large red bell pepper (approx. 300 g)
  • 1 large yellow bell pepper (approx. 300 g)
  • 1 red onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 4 stalks flat leaf parsley
  • 2 stalks mint
  • 4 ripe tomatoes (approx. 600 g)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp harissa (to taste)
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • Salt, pepper
  • 4 eggs
  • 100 g Turkish yoghurt (10 % fat)

Preparation

  1. Wash and clean the bell peppers, remove the core and cut into strips. Peel and finely dice the onion and garlic. Pluck the leaves from the herbs, chop finely and set aside. Wash the tomatoes, remove the core and cut the flesh into cubes.
  2. Heat the olive oil in the STAUB Stackable Braiser. Sauté the bell pepper and onion in it, add the garlic after a while and sauté until the vegetables are soft. Add the tomato paste, harissa and garam masala and sauté briefly.
  3. Stir in the diced tomatoes and simmer everything for about 10 minutes until a thick sauce has formed. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Using a soup ladle, press small depressions into the sauce and add one egg to each. Sprinkle with salt and simmer gently, covered, for about 8-10 minutes until the egg white is set and the yolk is still soft. Sprinkle with the herbs.
  5. Stir the yoghurt until smooth. Serve the shakshuka with a dollop of yoghurt.
  6. It goes well with pita bread or toast and foul mudammas, a bean stew.

Tip

Garam masala is a spice mixture that, like curry, consists of a variety of spices. The main ingredients are cardamom, cumin, pepper and cinnamon. The spice mixture is available in every well-stocked supermarket.

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 4 stalks parsley
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp ajvar

STANDING TIME
1 HOUR.

 

INGREDIENTS

  • 250 g wheat flour
  • 1 level tsp salt
  • 150 ml lukewarm water
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 20 g fresh yeast (or 7 g dried yeast, see tip)
  • 4 tbsp olive oil

Also

  • Wheat flour for processing
  • Olive oil for greasing

Preparation

  1. Mix the flour and salt in a bowl. Mix the water and sugar, crumble in the yeast and dissolve it. Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour, knead everything into a smooth dough and form into a ball. Cover and leave in a warm place for approx. 45 minutes until the volume has increased significantly.
  2. Knead the dough again briefly with your hands on a lightly floured work surface. Divide into 4 equal pieces and form into balls. Cover them and let them rise at room temperature for another 15 minutes. Then flatten the dough balls with your hands, then carefully roll out or flatten them into a round shape with approx. 15 cm diameter.
  3. Brush some olive oil on the STAUB Stackable Pan and heat it. Place one pita in it and bake over medium heat for about 5 minutes, turn over and bake for another 5 minutes until the dough is cooked. Bake the remaining pita breads in the same way.
  4. Goes well with shakshuka and foul mudammas, a bean stew.

Tip

If you like, you can sprinkle the raw pita breads with white or black sesame seeds.

When using dried yeast, mix it with the flour and salt and dissolve the sugar in water. Add the water and oil to the flour-yeast-mix and proceed as described.
