There are very few dishes that I miss since becoming vegan – however shakshuka is one of them. This is probably why I played around with the recipe for so long. I have many yummy memories of the spicy tomato sauce and baked eggs. My vegan alternative combines silken tofu, chickpea flour and a wealth of spices, resulting in a near-perfect shakshuka. Delicious!
