Spicy Chickpea, Pepper and Spinach Shakshuka
This is The Doctor’s Kitchen twist on ‘eggs in purgatory,' an Italian dish consisting of eggs gently poached in a spicy tomato sauce. We have upped th...e vegetable content by adding caramelised onions and peppers, spinach and chickpeas. They simmer together, becoming tender and full of flavour. Serve this for a weekend brunch or a mid-week dinner. If you’re having a busy week the sauce can be made ahead of time, so all you have to do before serving is heat it up, cook the eggs and make some toast.

Amazing and delicious
This is the first time trying a recipe with eggs cooked in this fashion and I was very impressed, it’s an easy meal to make and a very tasty one. The only thing I changed was the basil, instead of using it at the end I put it in at the same time as the passata as I prefer it cooked. Another fantastic meal added to my ever growing favourites, thank you 👍
Yet again I’ve used the app for guidance but didn’t have all of the right ingredients. It tasted lovely. I swapped peppers for cauliflower, mushrooms & fresh peas & it was great.. & my fresh veggies didn’t go to waste.
This is a great fast recipe. I actually used an air fryer to make it and worked out fine. I added a pinch of smoked paprika and 1/2 teaspoon oregano and I think it made it sing!
Brilliant recipe loved by all - we added some chicken thigh to up the protein content for a main family meal
