Shakshuka is a delicious, single-skillet dish of eggs poached in a spicy, homemade tomato sauce, traditionally made in the Middle East and North Africa.

Add or substitute a can of chickpeas or a diced red or green bell pepper, and simmer along with the tomato sauce.

While the title of this recipe might lead you to believe that only Guinness will do, I have found that just about any hearty stout does the trick and even add a few extra subtle flavor notes.
