Recipe: 5 Minute Microwave Shakshouka for one You'll need: 5 minutes, capsicum, onion, ground coriander, dried thyme, dried oregano, sesame seeds, sumac, chilli powder, tomato passata, eggs. 1. Slice half a red capsicum and half an onion. Place in a microwave safe bowl. 2. Add a dash each of dried herbs and ground spices mentioned above. 3. Add a 1/3 cup of tomato passata, 2 tbsp of water. 1/2 tsp sugar and one tbsp of olive oil. Mix to coat. 4. Cover the bowl and microwave for 2 minutes on high. 5. Make a well in the centre of the sauce and crack in one or two eggs. 6. Cover again and microwave in 30 second bursts until the eggs are poached to your liking. (My eggs took 2 minutes in total.) 7. Sprinkle over some chopped parsley or fresh corainder, salt and pepper, sesame seeds and additional chilli if you like your shakshouka extra spicy. 8. Enjoy with a little toast.
