Potato and Leek Shakshuka

You will need:

1 leek, finely sliced
400g potato, finely sliced (you can also use sweet potatoes)
Pinch salt and sugar
EVOO
1 jar of Matbucha (Signature Matbucha or Olives & Mint will work)
1 can chickpeas
4-6 eggs

How to Make:

Heat a large wide Dutch oven add a good drizzle of olive oil along with the leeks on medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes until they are softened. Add the potatoes and stir well.

Reduce heat to medium, cover and cook for 5 mins, stirring half way through.

Remove lid and add Matbucha. Fill the Matbucha jar 3/4 of the way with water and add that too. Stir in the chickpeas. Cover and cook for 8-10 mins until potatoes are tender.

Make 4-6 divots, and break an egg into each. Cover and cook for 6-8 mins until the whites are set.

When ready, drizzle with olive oil, top with mint or coriander, and serve with challah bread.
