Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Prepare the stock. Weigh the sweet potato and the rice.
  • Dice the sweet potato and the bell pepper into 1cm chunks.
  • Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the onion, the garlic and the ginger paste for 2 - 3 minutes.
Fry the vegetables
2
  • Add the tomato paste and fry for 2 more minutes. 
  • Stir in the sweet potato, the bell pepper, the yellow curry spices and the African-inspired spice mix, then fry for 1 minute until fragrant. 
  • Add the coconut milk and the stock, then allow to simmer gently for 8 - 9 minutes, covered.
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Poach the eggs
3
  • Gradually tear in the spinach, then cook for 1 more minute until wilted and reduced.
  • Make small wells in the vegetable mixture for each egg.
  • Crack the eggs directly into the wells so as to mostly submerge them with the sauce, then season the eggs with salt and pepper.
  • Cover with the lid and allow to poach for 4 - 6 minutes.
Boil the rice
4
  • Remove the lid, then turn up the heat and poach for a further 2 - 4 minutes so as to allow any excess liquid to evaporate.
  • In the meantime, boil plenty of salted water in a pot or saucepan.
  • Cook the rice for 8 - 10 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Finish
5
  • Zest and quarter the lime.
  • Roughly chop the coriander.
  • Squeeze a quarter lime per person directly into the rice.
  • Add half of the coriander and 1 tsp lime zest per person, then mix well to combine.
Serve
6
  • Serve the rice on deep plates and top with the shakshuka.
  • Garnish with the rest of the coriander.
  • Serve the rest of the lime wedges alongside.
