Shakshuka Burrito With Roasted Pepper Salsa And Tzatziki Recipes

SHAKSHUKA WITH FETA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low. Add onion and bell pepper. Cook gently until very soft, about 20 minutes. Add garlic and cook until tender, 1 to 2 minutes; stir in cumin, paprika and cayenne, and cook 1 minute. Pour in tomatoes and season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; simmer until tomatoes have thickened, about 10 minutes. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Stir in crumbled feta.
• Gently crack eggs into skillet over tomatoes. Season eggs with salt and pepper. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until eggs are just set, 7 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with hot sauce.

SHAKSHUKA WITH SWISS CHARD

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350-degrees. In a large oven-proof skillet (I used cast-iron), heat the olive oil. Add the bacon, if using, and onion garlic and chard stems and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the stems are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato sauce, dried basil and crushed red pepper and simmer until the sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• 2. Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted boiling water, blanch the chard leaves for 3 minutes. Drain and let cook slightly. Squeeze out the excess water. Form the chard leaves into 8 small piles and arrange them in the sauce around the side of the skillet. (I blanched and dried the chard in advance to make things easier--it'll keep for at least 30mins/1 hr).
• 3. Crack the eggs into the skillet between the piles of chard. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake the eggs for 12 to 15 minutes, until the egg whites are just set and the yolks are slightly runny.
• 4. Transfer the skillet to a rack and sprinkle the cheese on top. Let stand for 5 minutes. Garnish with basil and serve immediately.
• Note: I served with crusty bread which was great for dipping and making sure no sauce went to waste! You can use plain marinara but the arrabiata gave this a nice little kick--highly recommend it. I made without bacon and didn't miss it.

FETA & ROASTED TOMATO SHAKSHUKA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side down in a roasting tin, drizzle with some olive oil and season. Roast for 20 mins. Set aside to cool.
• Meanwhile, cook the onions in a medium ovenproof frying pan with the 2 tsp olive oil over a medium heat until they start to caramelise, about 8 mins.
• Once the onions have softened, add the peppers and season with salt, pepper and the pul biber. Peel the skins from the roasted tomatoes, then add these to the pan of onions and peppers along with all the resting juices.
• Crush the tomatoes roughly with a wooden spoon and cook for 5 mins over a medium-high heat. Add the wild garlic or spinach and wilt for a minute, then remove from the heat. Tuck the bread pieces in amongst the mixture, then create three gaps for the eggs using the spoon. Crack the eggs into the gaps, crumble over the feta and grate over the halloumi. Drizzle with some extra olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of pul biber.
• Turn the oven down to 160C/140C fan/gas 3 and bake the shakshuka for 12-15 mins. The eggs should be cooked but runny in the middle, and the feta, halloumi and bread should be crisp and golden.

CHIPOTLE AND ROASTED RED PEPPER SALSA

Steps:

• Place onions, chipotle pepper, red bell peppers, and cilantro into food processor and process for a few seconds.
• Add the remaining ingredients.
• Process all ingredients until well blended, but do not puree.
• Place in covered container and chill for several hours.
• Heat the salsa in the microwave before serving, as it is best served warm.
