  • Ground meat: 500 g
  • Onion: 1 large (finely chopped)
  • Garlic: 2 cloves (minced)
  • Parsley: 1/2 cup (chopped)
  • Spices:
    • Cumin: 1 teaspoon
    • Sweet paprika: 1 teaspoon
    • Salt: 1 teaspoon
    • Black pepper: 1 teaspoon
  • Tomatoes: 2 (chopped)
  • Olive oil: 3 tablespoons

PREPARATION

  1. Prepare the Ground Meat:
    • In a bowl, mix the ground meat with the onion, garlic, parsley, and spices until well combined.
    • Shape the meat into small balls or patties.
  2. Cook the Meat:
    • In a tagine or deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
    • Add the meatballs and cook until browned on all sides (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Add the Sauce:
    • Add the chopped tomatoes to the tagine and continue cooking for 5 minutes until the flavors meld.
    • You can add the hot pepper at this stage if you prefer a spicier flavor.
  4. Add the Eggs:
    • Once the meat is cooked with the tomatoes, use a spoon to make spaces in the sauce and crack the eggs into these spaces.
    • Cover the tagine and let it simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes or until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
  5. Serve:
    • Serve the tagine hot with bread or rice.
