Shakshuka means "mixture", which is ultimately what it is. It is a popular classic from North Africa and Israel, traditionally made with tomatoes, onions, peppers and egg. Tinned tomatoes and kale are the life blood of this version of winter shakshuka. Feta adds a creamy component and if you like, you can also supplement this with a few eggs. Then put the pan on the table and everyone can happily gather round and dip their pita bread into it.
