Dear John my name is Jaleh 60 years old. I have started watching your videos recently. I have been suffering from depression because of all the war going on around the world. I am a victim of war myself. But watching your videos is a kind of healing for me. I have to say congratulations to you to help me defeating my depression. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Much love and hugs to you!❤
Hugs ❤
❤❤ glad you are feeling better! Good luck!
Having been born and brought up in Tunisia, I like my shakshuka to be spicy, so instead of bell pepper (which in my opinion taste too sweet for this), I use a Tunisian chili paste that my family absolutely loves! It's called Harissa and I add according to how spicy I want it to be. Sometimes I add the red bell pepper in there along with some banana peppers for that slightly sweet and tangy taste!
I love Tunisian harrisa it’s amazing!
Sounds delish!
it is not Shakshouka or Ojja if it is not loaded with harissa, summer hot green pepper, onions, and garlic. YUM!
@@MaryTulipeNoire Yesss agreed!!
The only thing I brought back from my trip to Tunisia - Harissa haha :)
Omg I am cracking up because I always joke with my partner that every time I have a craving to fix a dish or dessert, your recipe for that dish pops up on my feeds soon after. About 2 hours ago, I brought up wanting to make shakshuka (and looking for recipes) and now you have uploaded this video! Perfect timing!! I will take that as a sign to make this dish this week!
I thought I'm the only one it was shocking me 🤣🤣🤣🤣
ME TOO!!! This is fate
It’s not fate guys or a coincidence. Google listens to everything you say through your phones and computers so that they can choose what videos to advertise to you. Facebook does the same thing :).

@@elmwoodmotionpictures1765 oop- thats kinda creepy tbh
Growing up, my mother always added cooked chickpeas to shakshouka. It’s quite common in Northern Egypt where she’s from, and she’d cook it in the oven. I’ve tried so many versions, but my mom’s meatless chickpea shakshouka is still my favourite!
Yes, I’ve had it served this way-it’s delicious! My other favorite is with kalamata olives & fresh coriander/cilantro, and sometimes a drizzle of yogurt.
I like that idea, chickpeas would add a delightful bit of added texture and flavor.

Hi! Im a vegetarian can you share a recipe?!!!!
@@snehakolluru8452 this recipe is not for vegetarian!!!
My favorite dish when I was student and broke in Morocco. I still love it.
This dish was invented in North Africa when the Spaniards brought tomatoes from America to our Mediterranean region. Big Thanks to the native people of America for bringing us some staples in our North African kitchen, like tomatoes, corn, avocado...
Shakshuka is delicious, nutritious, affordable and easy to make 👍
❤ From Morocco.
It wasn't the natives that brought you tomatoes. It was Europeans lol
@@timesup6302 The Spaniards brought the seeds from the Aztec empire in Europe and Spain. Technically, they didn't bring it to North Africa, but the tomato was cultivated by the South American Andes natives, the first place genius.
@apou01 You said the natives brought them to you. Which is false genius. Actually be smart if you're going to be a smartass
I made this dish and added chorizo (because I had to use it up) and omg, it was life changing. It delicious. I’m drooling thinking about it now.
Jon, you and Brian are doing your sons a great deed by developing their palates early. I love cooking and never understood why some parents made their kids bland food, assuming they wouldn’t eat the adult fare. As a result I raised four gourmands who are now raising their kids to explore cuisine. Food is such an intoxicating delight at any age!
I really enjoy indimine 2 minute noodles which are very spicy and hot and my boys hated missing out; these noodles are what got my boys into spicy hot meals from a very young age.
I was raised in a big family and I think I was in my 20s before I realized that some parents made "kid food," separate from whatever the adults were eating!
YES!! my nieces and nephews ate whatever we fixed, so it was such a blow to the heart when the oldest niece started school and then all of a sudden she didn't like "that" food anymore but thankfully that didn't last too long and she's back to eating what we eat; but there is always a time for fish sticks and french fries 🤣🥰
This is so true! Train them early so they don't miss out when they grow up! I have a friend whose kid doesn't like ham in her sandwich because "it ruins the flavor"....i stood there speechless LIKE ITS HAM..WHATTTT?!?!?! LOL
I looked at a kid crazy when she came over and said "I don't eat that shape pasta" girl please. 🤣
In Turkey, we called this dish “Menemen” and there’s an endless debate in public about which menemen is the real one: “with onion” or “without onion”. ☺️ And here, there’re some places especially in Black Sea region, they only serve shakshuka with gorgeous sourdough bread nothing else. It’s weird that this basic dish has deep culture in its genes.
I think the main differance between traditional menemen and shakshuka is Turks use butter but we use olive oil. And that simple ingrediant would make a very big differance. I noticed that in Turkey they make the butter brown before cooking it and it gives it a nutty flavour. Love tham both
@@shadanaljanabi2929 Thank you for your reply! Using butter is a choice changing by regions. In Black Sea region yes we use butter but when you go to the Mediterrian, they use olive oil too ☺️
It is pretty different. In a menemen you mix the eggs. Not in shakshuka. Also shakshuka has a kick to it. Menemen has a tomatoey flavor rather than spicy. I love both
I am from Australia and we have a large Turkish community. I have tried this dish (it was delicious). It was made with olive oil but without onion.
Also, it was made with pepper paste (that's what they called it). It is exactly like tomato paste but it is made with red capsicum rather than tomato to make the paste.
It was also made with fresh tomato not from a tin
@@marwanaghmouchi2399 yes I noticed that, they mix the eggs. I love the black sea version 🤤 every thing there is tasty. Even the eggs tast differant. I miss Turkey, stop talking about food 😭😭
You can tell John was a teacher....perfect instruction! Thanks, man!
Welcome 💥
I just made this earlier today. First time cooking one myself. Ended with so much that I invited my sister and her partner over: we are extremely happy and satisfied! This was quite easy and fun!
If you're in a rush , After adding the egg you can just start mixing it up to make it heat faster but if you want it to look good as John said leave it to heat for minutes " time depends on the oven"
Im a Middle Eastern follower so seeing the dish we eat mostly every morning is rlly amazing 👏 thank you
I made this for my family last night and they loved it! It turned out pretty good and I’m no expert cook whatsoever. Thank you so much for your recipes John! ✨❤️❤️
I must say you make everything PERFECT! My husband is from Turkey so we add a diced long hot pepper and we add a little mozzarella sometimes on the tomatoes at the end . It’s so delicious! Also your voice is so calm. I could listen to you all day. Thank you💝🍲
i love how affordable this recipe is! i make it 2 times a week with different variations and i never tire of it :)
I made Shakshuka yesterday!! I had a sudden craving, I'm so excited to try your recipe. Our friend said it was t he best thing I have ever made in the years of our friendship
Yes, Shakshuka is a family favourite. A couple of suggestions to anyone making this:
1. Have all of your eggs ready to go in advance -- break each in its own small bowl or cup (whatever you've got)..Salt and pepper each egg before adding them to the pan. You'll find that the eggs cook quickly, and you want to ensure that they all cook the same.
2. Get the whites cooked, absolutely, but only minimally cook the yolks. When you serve (always in bowls, never plates), serve with the eggs floating on top, and then your guests can break their yolks, creating a delicious blend of egg and tomatoes. To achieve this, timing is crucial. You need to have your toast or bread prepped and waiting. As soon as the eggs are ready, get the pan off of the heat, and dish out the tomato mix, nestling the eggs on top, and dress as you'd like with herbs, a dash of olive oil, and/or a sprinkle of finely shredded slightly salty cheese (such as parmesan).
hehe, my wife point-blank *refuses* to eat my Shakshuka if the yolks are not fully cooked - runny yolks make her nauseous. So I always have to add some of the eggs early and some later so I can scoop out the parts with the runny yolks for myself!
@DN Griffiths That's making something complicated out of a very simple dish.
@@mylesleggette7520 yup! i know a lot of people that don’t like runny yolks
Thank you, I always wanted to learn to make this meal, appreciate your simple and clear instructions.
I have a friend from Africa. She’s made this for me before. She put some okra in hers, along with a small amount of scotch bonnet peppers. She kept the spice level low because she knows I don’t handle that level of heat, LOL. Anyway she also chopped up a large squash of some sort, I don’t know what type as she prepped before I came over. It was absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing this, I think I’ll try and make my own.
Algerian way to do it: thinly sliced onion, bell pepper and garlic are optional but add more flavor, hot pepper, spices (black pepper, paprika, a little bit of cumin), freshly cut tomatoes are the best to use. Eggs are optional, you can also add fried diced zucchini, eggplant and /or potatoes. Final touch: extra olive oil when its done cooking.
Another version: called Chlita, is basically Roasted bell pepper, roasted garlic and tomatoes. Everything smashed and sauté with olive oil..
Those 2 are our go to dishes on summer time
that's totally true.... I love the second one, I really enjoy it in summer time, ❤❤❤
Thanx for your recipe tips!
@@user-my5ve2fx1k welcome, let me know when you try it how it turns out
This video has given me a big grin.Shakshouka is an iconic dish in the Egyptian cuisine.Mom and my late grandma used to fix it as an easy and fast meal on busy days.
Hi John. As you said, many cultures have something like this. I’m Italian and ours is called Eggs in Purgatory. Different spices, grated cheese. Popular Lenten dish!
Eggs in purgatory for Lent! Lol
@@lilafeldman8630 lol, true story!
Sylvia, what's the recipe name in Italian please?
@@MotanulFritz2008Fritz, if u see this, its about the Italian version. My grandmother used to make it WITHOUT the peppers, but she added 2 large cans of peas at the end instead (Frozen peas are too firm). She then added lots of Italian spices...oregano, basil, crushed🔥red pepper, well salted and bay leaves and let it simmer. She used more tomato sauce, and would add chicken broth if too thick. Poach the eggs, top with lots of fresh parmesan. It's incredible and my daughter's favorite dish!! 😊
Eggs in Purgatory is right. Everything that goes into this dish is mmmm, until the eggs are added, THEN it's purgatory for me 😣!
Wonderful, and easy too. Thank you John.
In Turkey we call it menemen, shakshuka is different meal here. We chop eggplant, potatoes and fry them in the deep frier and make tomato sauce and cook it in that sauce too. You should try that one too 100% sure you will love it.
This is the exact recipe we use in Algeria! Bravo!! I am surprised how you nailed it!! The perfect bread that goes with it could be matlou or khobz eddar. Two traditional Algerian home made breads.
This looks great! Thanks, Jon - appreciate all the tips - look forward to trying!
Omgg I am a big fan of you from Saudi Arabia and Shakshoka is very famous here.
I am really happy to see you addressing one of our delicious Middle Eastern dishes! Enjoy everyone!
@@leonardopeters4914 and? If you don’t know North Africa speaks Arabic and shares the same religion and similar history with the Middle East, so we have a mixed culture. Also Egypt isn’t that far away from Saudi Arabia and as an Arab, unlike you, I grew up eating this for breakfast many mornings.
Didn’t see the day where a guy named Leonardo teaches me about my culture coming.
I like this dish. Tried this once with my daughter back then. Very simple, easy to prepare but none the less satisfying dish.
Tried this myself and literally I am in love with this dish. Great video!
This looks SO yummy! We still have tomatoes from last summer in the freezer, so this recipe would be a fantastic way to use them up. And, this meal is very economical, and I know my grandchildren would love this dish as well!
Welcome 💥
Hi, how do you freeze tomatoes? :)
@@taniaslabokrug9362 We cut just through the skin a couple of times, drop them into boiling water for several minutes, then quickly remove them. Once they are cool enough, the skin will peel off easily. After that we cut them into smaller pieces and puree them in our blender. We cook the puree down for several hours, adding spices and other seasonings. We only make marinara sauce to use for spaghetti and other pasta dishes!
@@Patti-1962 Thank you very much, for your answer. It is interesting idea ;)
@@Patti-1962 thank you Patti ❤
OMG I just watched the segment with John Kanell on Drew Barrymore and it was the sweetest thing ever! She praised him for his gentleness and his kindness in speaking, and was literally brought to tears! I think Drew made a very profound point and expressing what so many of us love about John Kanell!
welcome
Loved this, just made it for brunch. I had a lot of yogurt I wanted to use so I topped the dish with yogurt and garlic, so a mix of your recipe with Turkish eggs. Thanks for the inspiration.
I’ve been making this dish for a couple years now. I add garbanzo beans. But all the other ingredients look just like your recipe. Thank you for sharing❤️
Simple but so tasty...we in Tunisia can add homemade sausages or shrimps or meatballs...we call it Ojja or Shakshuka..we have some personal touch also like garlic, red chilly pepper or Harissa (which is red pepper paste with some local spices) and decorate with parsley...so yummy...it's so simple but it can be easily modified.
Welcome 💥
Love this dish, I'm Algerian and I made this dish every time! I make it very spicy lol. Thanks for making it John.
@@noratameu8674 سلام هذا جميل!
@@noratameu8674 Okay
Incredible! I'll be making it soon.
My new favorite thing to cook. Thank you for rescuing me from frozen store-bought Shakshuka! Made it two nights in a row. First with sweet pepper and then second with a sweet potato instead
So nice to see a recipe from my country , Algeria ❤ thank you john

Shakshuka is a Tunisian Dish
@@nicolasperidakis3335 No, it originated from somewhere between Algeria and Tunisia. Can’t really pinpoint a specific country since there were no distinct borders formerly, therefore claiming it’s Tunisian is quite misleading. That’s why we generally go for North African, Maghrebi or Berber dish.
Its also a traditional dish from arab countries not only tunesia & algeri btw 😂
@@aaliyaatisa7025 you obviously didn't get my point. It's a very popular dish therefore present in a lot of countries but it originated from North Africa. Just like pasta, you can find it everywhere but it's still Italian.
Omg, doing it Monday for breakfast, Tuesday for lunch and Wednesday for dinner 🤩, looks delicious 🥰👍
I love how wholesome it is that this guy cooks in his grandmothers kitchen
This might be the best presentation of a recipe that I've ever seen. I'll be making it this evening. Thanks John!
It’s 10:22 pm and I am about to get up and make this. 🤤
it's the recipe of nona tameu. welcome.
its 10:50 pm and im abt to get up and make this
Fried tomatoes and eggs is my childhood favorite been having this for over 30 years love it
Welcome 💥
@@noratameu8674 welcome for what
It is my favourite breakfast. The main ingredients are fresh tomato and chilli pepper both are the best to have the original shakshouka. Thanks for sharing that dish and producing it professionally like usual.
Your kitchen is so tasteful. Intentional pun. Those are beautiful, and I'm sure, quality cooking tools. I can't wait to make this!
🤩🤩Cooking is the art of creating recipes by adding the right spices to make the food taste good. Great dishes differ all across the world. (You have The ambition to make something very good with the fewest possible ingredients. )Have a very blessed and wonderful week for you and your family
I'm north African , we cook shakshuka a lot during summer it's delicious and easy to make 😋
We have had this in our family for years thank you for sharing
Actual broke student here: made this with some salsa dip, eggs and shredded mozzarella-cheddar. No leftover veggies for me. 💔 My electric pot was too wide to make a well so the eggs overcooked but the result made a pretty solid Huevos Rancheros 🫡
As you mentioned it's a north African recipe.. you did it well with complete xomprehension to its ingredients. I cheer for you for the recipe and for being left handed talent just like me hahaha.
Shakshuka is one of the most go to dish for summer in Algeria we serve it with olive oil and “kesra” which is a traditional type of bread
Delicious! I’m making it tomorrow for breakfast!
I have made many many of ur recipes I have never been disappointed can’t wait to try this looks amazing
I am making this dish right now and it tastes really good. Waiting for the eggs to be done. Love watching your videos and trying your recipes. Thank you!!
Shakshuka is super famous and loved by everyone here in Algeria ! Thanks for sharing this among your recipes John. We love you ! 🤓❤️🇩🇿
You also gave a spot on definition of the name 👏
Tamazight dish, love it!
cake channel
I just made this. Beautiful and tasty. Thanks once again for a beautiful recipe
Thank you for sharing...this was absolutely wonderful!
Looks really good! I frequently make Shakshuka and just taught my granddaughter to make it. Interestingly, the grocery store near me now has bottles of Shakshuka that you can buy! (it's near the spaghetti sauce) Anyhoo, sometimes I add 2 or 3 crumbled veggie burgers (Dr. Praeger's) and before adding the eggs, I put a parmigiano reggiano rind in the sauce to get a delicate cheese flavor going throughout. Then add the eggs and cover. This is a really great dish to eat with bread, but even better ladled over Fritos as if it was a vegetarian/vegan chili!
I always went skin side DOWN on the bell peppers because it’s easier to cut through with even a slightly dulled knife. Legit different strokes I guess. Amazing dish bro!
Welcome 💥
Definitely should be spicy. I love the argument about the origin of the dish. It's like so many other Middle Eastern type dishes that probably come from all sorts of once, everyone customizing it to their own taste.
Really like this channel
As somebody who mainly watches his baking things, this was a nice lil change especially with something I really wanna try
OM-gosh! What a quick and delicious meal. I waited all week to make this for myself on the weekend. It was so easy. I added cauliflower and sweet broccoli because I new those vegetables needed to be used. I also added harissa seasoning, and I absolutely will be making this again. Thank you! Now to start on your sugar cookies to bake for work colleagues. Oh and lets not forget the black bottom cupcakes.
It is one of the famous recipes in Algeria🇩🇿🇩🇿 😍😍😍
Thanks 👌
Just made it and it was amazing! Thanks!
i just made this as breakfast for me and my family and they were amazing!! gone within minutes. the feta cheese was a nice touch. thank you preppy kitchen!!
Yammy
A thanks from Algeria🇩🇿🤗👍🏼where tchakchouka is eat especially in summer😋
I love this dish, I don’t add as many spices, just Italian seasoning salt and pepper. I add ground sausage and chickpeas. 😋
Thank you so much for the recipe and all precious explanations. 😍😍😍
very good. thank you
That face when you tasted it to check the seasoning though! Too cute. Could tell it tasted just right :) Can't wait to make this tomorrow.
Welcome 💥
I've actually done this for lunch as well and added chicken. It is wonderful!!! LOVE IT😋😋😋
Yammy
I come from Italian family and my mother has always made this dish, using parsley! Yours looks delicious! I will make it tomorrow! Thanks
I’ve been making this dish since I was 14. I don’t put cilantro or parsley in it but sometimes I add green peas and mushrooms . I also serve it over steam rice, but I like it with crusty bread as well.
Coming from New Orleans, I'd have to add some celery, Cayenne, and white pepper. I'd also add some serious Andouille Sausage. I might also add some gulf shrimp!
Man I was on a certain meal plan back in the day from my 30 day boot camp and they gave a meal plan for us to cook our own food and this was similar to what we had to prepare. Omg it was my all time favorite.
Btw John I would have pushed all the onions and peppers to to edge of the pan leaving the center open and I would have let my spices roast a bit more before I mixed the veggies in. Oooh and I think a tsp of turmeric would give a good curry taste.
I know what I'm making on Fridays during lent holiday.
I followed your recipe as is (with a regular nonstick frying pan instead of an iron skillet) and was a big hit for brunch!! Thank you.
I enjoy making this ♡. Thank you!!
I love this dish! I usually add yellow and red bell peppers, carrots, a little bit of tomato paste or sauce and meat, it's delicious! They're also perfect with oven baked potatos
I love this dish! Something completely different than your usual bacon and eggs.
So true!!! Thank you!
Made this yesterday!!!! Absolutely loved it, as per usual
Thanks for sharing! This looks delicious and something my boys and I would love (might get hubby to eat it if the tomato flavor is hidden enough). We are currently learning about Africa and specifically the countries of Egypt and Mali; so this will be a great addition to the recipe we are trying out of the Hungry Planet book chapter on Mali.
I love shakshuka! 😍 I think this is a sign I need to make it again 🥰
I add special shakshuka spice, grated feta cheese and sometimes spinach too. I love your recipes!!!
Amazing tutorial! I rewatch you and this video every time I make shakshuka at home!!!
Yaaaaaaas 🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳🥰🥰🥰🥰 i've been following your channel for a long time i'm so happy you made my country's dish !!
Had a sudden craving for shakshuka and came across your video. Made it today and they were amazing!! Easy and delicious!!
Looks delicious
Nearly every culture has its own version of this
It can definitely be made with whatever suits you
Just tried this out and it was delicious thanks John ❤
I'm from Egypt and we usually add minced meat to it. It's delicious, you should try it!
It's from all North Africa
@@moritlh she never said it exclusively originated from Egypt, she just said that’s how they make it..
@@Yazz_my Exactly. Thank you!
So good... In my version, I add tomato paste for sweetness; and for the eggs, I go for low temperature eggs for controlled and soft eggs (64° for 1h05). I don't like overcooked eggs and this way they're just melting in your mouth and creamy. Thank you for the video, amazing as always 🙏
Welcome 💥
That looks delicious 😋 will definitely try that thank you 🙏
Your kitchen is so pretty. And love how you explained the recipe!
Vegetables you can do with your skakshouka :
- Eggplants.
- Zucchini
- Pumpkin in small pieces
- Fried potatoes
- Spinach (the spinach variant with no peppers & tomatoes is named Makhzouna)
My favourite is eggplant Shakshuka its absolutely delicious.
And damn god I never seen a skakshouka with chickpeas !!! 😛
😋😋😋
needs harissa though ! It's always made with harissa in it's original home, Tunisia. and it adds a lot of flavor if it's traditional homemade Harissa with smoked pepper and all the spices..
Hi Mehdi..glad to see a Tunisian fellow here...
I think Tunisia is not the original source of shakshuka.. I once heard it's an Indian dish hhhhh...hope I am wrong..well we have our personal touch of spices and ingredients you know
🤔 Where do we get and what is harissa? Please
@@patriciadelgadillo388 harissa is a red pepper / chili pepper paste. You should be able to find it in the international foods aisle, or close to canned / jarred sauces.
@@patriciadelgadillo388 You find it in any Mediterranean store . Hyvee too has two or three different types of harrisa in jars
Thank you all 😊♥️
Omgg it's a very famous dish here in Algeria 🇩🇿 and you can even find it in restaurants / street food etc . I really love it 😍 so delicious !
I have been wanting to prepare SHAKSHUKA. Thank you for sharing this video. Easy peasy ❤😊
A friend of mine taught me how to make this years ago when I was in college but I’d forgotten the name of it till I saw this. Thanks for the memories! Btw she also made hers with garlic paprika-the hot kind of paprika, not the American kind.
Welcome 💥
@@noratameu8674 lmao why are you going around saying welcome-
I’m from Algeria, we love this dish , some people add eggplant or zucchini or diced fried potatoes or all together 😊
You always have the best recipes right when I need them. I love your creativity!!!
it's nora tameu recipe
I love this guy and now he’s going to be my new cooking coach
I am from North Africa tunisia and I think you did great. For kick you can definitely add a tbs of harissa which we use in Tunisia. For meat lovers some mergez would be perfect but also sea food.
welcome.
