Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a large baking tray with parchment paper / silver foil
  • Pull out a large lidded frying pan, a sieve and a measuring jug

Roast the salsa

  • Halve the tomatoes. Slice the spring onions into 1cm pieces
  • Place both on the lined baking tray, drizzle with 1 tsp oil. Season with salt and pepper. Bake for 7-8 mins until the tomatoes are soft
  • Set aside and leave to cool

Prep the veg

  • Finely chop or crush the garlic. Thinly slice the onions. Thinly slice the peppers. Roughly chop the coriander
  • Drain and rinse the butterbeans. Rinse the spinach

Make the shakshuka

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and pepper and cook for 5-7 mins, until softened
  • Add the garlic and tempero baiano. Cook for a further minute, then add the passata, butterbeans and 120 ml water (30 ml water for 1 person). Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 mins

Finishing touches

  • Stir in the spinach, half of the coriander and season with salt and pepper
  • Create 4 wells in the sauce and gently crack in the eggs. Cover with a lid and simmer for 5-7 mins, until the whites have set and the yolks are still runny
  • In the small bowl combine the roasted spring onions, tomatoes, 1 tsp oil with the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper

Plate up

  • Spoon the shakshuka into bowls and garnish with the remaining coriander. Spoon over the charred spring onion salsa
