Shakshuka is a popular dish of humble origins, which is why it is also known as huevos a lo pobre. Here is Chef Iván's recipe. Prepare it and let us know what you think!

Method

Cut the onion into small dice and crush the garlic. Also cut the tomatoes into dice and set them aside.
In a pan with a little olive oil, sauté the onion, garlic and chorizo cut into rounds.
When the onion is translucent, add the diced tomatoes and tomato sauce, and season with smoked paprika.
Mix well and cook, covered, over low heat for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally so it does not stick.
When the sauce begins to dry out, add the olives and a touch of chopped parsley. Cover and let cook for a couple more minutes.
Make a hole in the sauce for each egg and place them one by one, always cracking them separately.
Cover the pot again and let the eggs cook with residual heat for 5 to 10 minutes.
Serve hot, accompanied by bread, or by rice if you prepared it for lunch. Enjoy!
