Be a good child and spoil your mum this Mother’s day with this Chorizo Shakshuka breakfast in bed and tell her how much you love her! Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums and mother-to-be’s. Thank you for being our superheroes.

Now, back to shakshuka. Everybody loves shakshuka, of course but have you tried it with chorizo sausages? The chorizo adds another layer of complexity and flavours to the dish from all the aromatic spices. And who doesn’t mind a bit of extra protein in the morning.

Ingredients

* 1-2 Chorizo sausages, diced
* 4-5 eggs
* 1 red bell pepper/capsicum, diced
* 1 onion, diced
* 3 garlic cloves, minced
* 1.5 (600ml) canned tomatoes
* 1tbs smoked paprika
* 1tbs chilli flakes
* 1tbs onion powder
* Feta cheese, crumbled
* Parsley, finely chopped
* Bread, toasted

Tip: cut your veggies and chorizo small so it cooks faster. Let’s be real, we’re all hangry in the morning so time is a limited resource.

Method

In a dry pan over low to medium heat, add in your chorizo cubes and leave to render out its oil and crisp up.

Add in onion, bell pepper, garlic and spices, and cook until the veggies are soft (~10 mins. Dice your veggies finer if you want to cut down the cooking time).

Add in the canned tomatoes with a splash of water and leave to cook for another 5-10 mins or until the tomatoes have cooked through and broken down.

Turn heat down to low, make little wells and crack in your eggs. Cover and leave to cook for 10 mins or until your desired doneness of the eggs.

Top with feta, parsley and serve with toasted bread.
