Fast and Easy Shakshuka
By :The Essential Keto Instant Pot Cookbook by Casey Thaler
Easy Shakshuka
Shakshuka is a dish that originated in North Africa, but its taste appeals across many cultures. An easy way to think of it is as a similar flavor profile to a pizza, but without the crust. Making shakshuka in the Instant Pot could not be easier, as it is ready to eat after just 5 minutes of cooking. This also makes a great “breakfast for dinner” dish.

    Its a good recipe, as in tastes great, but people should know if you have a 8qt pot it will burn because theres not enough water. To resolve you can either double the recipe or do a pot in pot batch with extra water in the main pot and a longer cook time since the food will no longer be directly heated in the bottom/main pot.

    Flavor was good but I cooked exactly according to the recipe and it was overcooked. The eggs were hard cooked.

    Made this on stovetop, in a regular pan 🙂 Was ready in 10 minutes and absolutely yummy. Dishes like that really do not require an instant pot…
