In a large deep skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and bell peppers and cook until softened and beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook until tender, 1 to 2 minutes; stir in salt, paprika and pepper, and cook for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes and the shakshuka spice, mix everything together and leave to simmer on a low flame for 10-15 minutes (add water as necessary to keep the mixture…)
Cook eggs evenly on top of the sauce for 6 to 8 minutes or until whites are set and yolks are thick but runny (if you like firmer yolks, cook for 1-2 minutes more.) Sprinkle with parsley and feta cheese (optional). Serve with warm bread and ENJOY! Be'teavon!
