Sundried Tomato Pesto Shakshouka

Shakshouka is the perfect sharing dish which has many variations across the Mediterranean, Middle East and North Africa. This is our take on the one-pot-meal using our Filippo Berio Sundried Tomato Pesto. In Arabic, "Shakshouka" means "a mixture" referring to the wonderful combination of eggs, tomatoes, vegetables, olive oil and spices. Open to interpretation, we've of course added an Italian twist to ours!
