Non-Veg Shakshuka

I made this dish about 1.5 mths back. An easy dish indeed that uses mince meat. But if you are lazy to buy mince meat, can use corned beef also *wink*. If I am not wrong, shakshukah is actually a middle eastern vegetarian dish. You can also make the vegetarian version by omitting the meat and replace with more vege and potatoes.
