as a tunisian (north africa) i'm so glad to see this; also funny to me that this recipe is so social media famous when in my country, its like construction worker food cause it cooks quickly and has a great taste. i love that he used ras hanout and harissa it feels nice for my country to be represented even in a dish c:
There's a lot of popular food out there that at least started out as worker food. Pizza, tacos, etc., all are relatively cheap and quick to make and have a degree of portability, too, so are useful to those who need something easy when on break.
Americans will eat almost anything that can be served on a wrap or in a sandwich. Sometimes you have to trick us by calling it "a Middle Eastern taco!" or something dumb like that, but construction worker food is the backbone of cuisine in a country that invented drive thrus.
Thermophile Just use a ready made spice mix...cuts down on the costs (and clutter in the cupboards), big time. For the other ingredients, try ethnic supermarkets - they often have stuff like that cheaper, since it’s not ‚exotic‘ ingredients there.
It isn't like he himself is actually going out of his way to look for these specific sponsors, chances are they're coming to him directly, and throwing a buttload of cash in front of him going "Hey, how about promoting our item on your show?" And you know what, why the hell not?
consider his audience, people who want to make nice food are people who presumably have money, time, and are already thinking about spending money on ingredients, appliances, and cleaning supplies.
I decided to make this for lunch today and I’m AMAZED at how good it is, even without the fancier spices that Babish uses. Goes right into my personal clean plate club.
As an Algerian (North Africa) I knew he did make good researches when he added ras el hanout (head of the shop in arabic ) which is a blend of dried spices something like the 7 Indian spices or herbs de province.. that varies A LOT ,some regions in my country make it with 5-12spices others prepare it with more than 25 .
"This is gonna be the easiest recipe you've ever tried" "Okay, so to start you are gonna want a cube of dwarven mithril, a page from the Gutenberg Bible and the egg of a giant squid"
Yeah I'm amazed at how complicated he made that one. The way I prepare it is very simple: Dice an onion, chop a bell pepper (I prefer red), and prepare garlic like babish did. Start sauteing them all together in a pan with heated olive oil. After a few minutes, I guess once they're sweated, in proper terms, add in a can of crushed tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, and red chili flakes if you like spice. Just like babish, let it simmer. I leave it for about 15 minutes before adding my eggs, but mileage may vary. Add your eggs and continue cooking until the eggs are cooked to your taste.
@@JacobAvnerPr1mus3 wait how is this any different than the way he did it? I just watched the video and it seems pretty much exactly the same to me, he just used different seasonings
I felt so happy when I saw a shakshouka recipe and specially when you said "ras el hanout" ! I didn't even think people knew the recipe or even the spice mix! And then you said "harissa"! Well done! Thanks Babish
It's been called that (ova 'mpriatoria/Uova in purgiatorio) for about 400 years. Uova in purgiatorio though is, much like other neapolitan food, usually deceptively simple. It's just crushed tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, a few spices and a few eggs. Nothing as fancy as Babish version.
There is a relatively quick fix for that. Use ground dried koriander (cilantro) seeds instead. They are far less soapy and bring out all the cilantro goodness that goes so well with tomato.
@@julianwaters3946 Yes, this! I've never thought it tastes like soap, but it definitely reminds me of those little green stink bugs we get all over the place her during the summer.
I just want to say that I super appreciate that I've found a cook who hates cilantro as much as I do (it doesn't even taste like soap to me, it just tastes bad). Also I appreciate your tiny whisk love. I grew up in a home where that was my only exposure to a whisk so was really surprised when I got older and saw people pull out *giant* ones.
No, middle eastern here and passionate foodie. Sure its non traditional. But I dont come to watch BwB for traditional ways to cook a meal. Plus his spice mix is no where close to how it's actually done but I would expect that it would taste nice.
I have actually started enjoying my shakshuka with rice instead of the usual crusty bread. In my opinion the rice really absorbs and distributes the sauce and yolk in an ideal way for my taste buds.
Idk when all is said and done it usually takes at least 20 minutes to cook myself something for breakfast if I'm really cooking and not just throwing things in the microwave, so it's pretty comparable PLUS the one pan thing is an attractive advantage for those of us who can't make ourselves do dishes in a timely manner....
@@sassylobsterhands My morning does not allow 30mins, frying eggs and adding stuff with them takes like what, 5mins? Max 10. That's my breakfast. But I've done this shakshuka once and it was interesting. Might try it again some time. But to me the idea of "fast breakfast" taking 20-30 mins was somewhat hilarious.
Yes! I was about to start making it when I got the video notification from UA-cam. It is one of my favorite breakfast dishes. I had it in a few restaurants but it just doesn’t compare to homemade.
That is the *only* thing I can ever think of when I see the jar of aleppo in my spice cabinet. Finally, the libertarians have contributed something positive to the world!
I think he was already sponsored by Dollar shave club, which has butt wipes in the kit they are advertising. So unless he hasn't been sponsored by them, he has been sponsored by toilet paper.
I told my mother I wanted to make this, she didn't recognize it by name, but she remembered having it before from the description, in addition to being delicious, quick, easy and instagram worthy, she said it was also a good hangover cure
Don’t forget the most important part: it’s cheap to make. This is the equivalent of instant ramen noodles for middle eastern college students (my big bro makes this at least once a week)
2:07 where's my Algerian gang at ! It feels so good seeing my culture being represented, our cooking is absolutely delicious and it is a real pleasure to see it being shared on such a large platform , thank you babish, love from 🇩🇿
I have it too, there is a super rad burrito place close to my place but they put cilantro in everything and you cant order without it. Soo tasty until you get a bite of soap
@@recoil53 Huevos Rancheros does not need to be cooked in tomatoes to be Huevos Rancheros, it just needs to be topped with Salsa Fresca. But there is a version of Huevos Rancheros that is cooked in tomatoes called Huevos Ahogados.
SkinnyBones Yes, like the spot between heaven and hell. That’s the Italian American name; the untranslated is Uova Piccante in Purgatorio and they sometimes use quail eggs, but I’ve always had the really easy American one that’s onion, garlic, red pepper flake, oregano, and tomatoes with the eggs poached after about 45 minutes
I'm a Berber Algerian and let me tell ya, that recipe was perfection, you nailed it so hard, bravo! 👏👏💯🔥 Also... "Ras El Hanout" and "Mergez"... I laughed so hard 😂😂
It was Ratatouille for me. It got me hooked instantly and when I saw that he cooks from movies and series 😍 thEN it got even better, I saw the "Basics with Babish" 😗👌🏼
The Italian variation of this as I know it is called “uova in purgatorio” or “eggs in purgatory. This was something that mostly the southern regions made because it was the poorest parts. It was simple and easy for the farmers to make. So simple and easy to make and it tastes amazing.
I'm italian too and I actually love to make a much spicier version of this that I call "eggs in hell". You can use fresh tomatoes for it too! Or a combination of fresh tomatoes and sauce! Eat it directly from the pan with lots of crusty bread and a few friends. Bam. Best brunch ever
I've made the Italian version a couple times since watching this video, I keep accidently overcooking my eggs, but other than that, it's absolutely delicious and has quickly become my favourite breakfast
Tunisian here! I'm really happy that Babish uses the right name "Shakshuka" and not the "North African eggs" name I see used so often! And it took me two tries to understand "ras el hanout" lol
Here in Saudi Arabia we just simmer the onion then add chopped tomatoes and salt and let it on low-medium heat for about 7 minutes then add egg and whisk it with the mixture till its cooked 🤤 its super taste you should try it
Ameen Alnaimi ik y’all are beefing but it’s still Israel y’know 😬 no need to correct 🤔 Palestine has its own state but the commenter is from Israel so u can’t rlly correct them when it’s jus facts
its just because its someone elses sponsored video i think so probably a contract clause not to promote others as he normally shows all the brands on normal videos
Totally LOVE shakshuka, I was really excited when I saw that you uploaded this! I usually use a healthy (read: bordering on excessive) amount of cumin when making it ahaha
"Hey whats up you guys today we're gonna be making shakshuka" Me a Middleeasterner: "woah, its like he connects with his fans directly" btw im also eating it while writing this comment.
I love your comment about cilantro flavoring. One of the restaurants I worked in customers always requested more cilantro. (we put it in damn near everything) proof customers have no idea about flavor they just wanted to feel like their dish was something special.
@@JohnSmith-dr5zn He was a Libertarian candidate in the 2016 Presidential election and during a town hall/debate he was asked a question about Aleppo because of the ongoing civil war in Syria. His response was, "What is Aleppo?"
The Shakshuka looks great! There's just one detail that irritated me: If you put the whole cumin in with the ground spices, you won't get the best flavour out of it and it might stay sort of tough. From what I know of Indian cooking, whole spices generally go into the hot oil before anything else. And once they're golden, you can proceed with the onions, grlic, etc. Then you add the ground spices.
Babish: "Stay tuned for next week when I'll be bringing you another quick recipe... for French toast." Me: *sits up straighter Wha-wha-what was that? YES, PLEASE.
eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cream if you have it. i hate when people make it with eggs and at most a bit of sugar/milk only, its an affront to the good name of french toast.
@@kazeshi2 Oh yeah! Vanilla and cinnamon is a must, for sure. I've used milk but never tried cream, though. I'll have to give it a try sometime. Nutmeg sounds interesting too!
I disagree my brother and friend... I found that he went too much creative / crazy with the Feta cheese and honey topping. Maybe it's remastered or "revisitée" version, but i won't call it expert version. But let's agree that this episode put (indirectly) in honor our wonderful 🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳😁😁😁

I'm italian too and I actually love to make a much spicier version of this that I call "eggs in hell". You can use fresh tomatoes for it too! Or a combination of fresh tomatoes and sauce! Eat it directly from the pan with lots of crusty bread and a few friends. Bam. Best brunch ever
Ahhh I have this all the time and it's so good
Ya, no sausage though. I wish he made it without.
Some say it's among the best hangover cures known.
I've made the Italian version a couple times since watching this video, I keep accidently overcooking my eggs, but other than that, it's absolutely delicious and has quickly become my favourite breakfast
Chef John echoes in my mind, _"S H A A A A K S H U K A A A A A A A A A A A A ."_
That fucking song omg
Same! I love Chef John with all my heart. That man has taught me so much!
Plus he did a better job !John's version was closest to the authentic one .
I said the name of this dish and my furniture started floating wtf?!
@@SpecialK6077 except the fact that he added a bunch of mushrooms
Italian version is "Eggs In Purgatory." A lot of cultures have tomato and egg based recipes. Good stuff.
I don’t know why “eggs in purgatory” cracked me up 😂
ahhah i was wondering if this was Eggs In Purgatory!
Northafraicans here
Special shout out to my both home country :
Algeria and Tunisia .
Ay Algeria in the house!
Ps: I laughed so hard when he said "Margez" lol
I Laughed at rass hanout and mergez. Harrissa also
Tunisian here! I'm really happy that Babish uses the right name "Shakshuka" and not the "North African eggs" name I see used so often! And it took me two tries to understand "ras el hanout" lol
Eyyyyy ma algerian gang ! *---- *
dont forgot middle east
You made my algerian life very happy when he said “ ras el hanout”🥺
same
is no one going to talk about how clean babish's ad transition in the beginning was
It was actually kind of a mess
@@shmuleysheklestien5546 i see what you did there ;) but ya hes a pro at ad transitions
Here in Saudi Arabia we just simmer the onion then add chopped tomatoes and salt and let it on low-medium heat for about 7 minutes then add egg and whisk it with the mixture till its cooked 🤤 its super taste you should try it
That’s how we do it in Israel too. We just don’t mix the eggs in. Much easier and sooooo tasty (my family also adds a little bit of brown sugar)
@@mayasiegel4169
Palestine but ok
Ameen Alnaimi ik y’all are beefing but it’s still Israel y’know 😬 no need to correct 🤔 Palestine has its own state but the commenter is from Israel so u can’t rlly correct them when it’s jus facts
I personally prefer this style over the ones in the video. I littaraly eat it daily for breakfast
Legitimacy of Israel aside: To be fair it's almost like they were forced out of the Middle East into diasporas for a while
Can you make a Shrimp Basket and a Slopper from Everybody Hates Chris episode, "Everybody Hates Bad Boys"
YESSSSSSSS
@@blackatt_ NOOOOOOOO
YES YES YES
And then fried chicken, or sausages.
Made this today with chorizo, garlic, onion, hatch chiles, cumin, & topped with jalapenos, cilantro, and queso fresco. My family loved it!
Other people: sponsored by fee-to-pay games and VPNs
Babish: sponsored by paper towels
Don't forget that one time he was Sponsored by Toothpaste
As someone who spends time in the kitchen, I might actually buy that...
I'd ask to get paid in paper towels, you can never have too many.
"Ahh, I forgot my plate"
I see where this is going
"ah... i forgot to use a plate...."
NOT ANOTHER COOKING SHOW has entered the chat
I made the Italian version over the weekend for my family and it was a BIG hit. Super yummy, thank you Andrew!
PLEASE do the school dinners from South Park when randy become the school dinner lady
I second this

Bonus points if he makes it sound like all his prep work and cooking is actually porn. 🤣😂🤣
Oh man I still sing that cooking show theme song all the time. Cafeteria . . . Fraiche!

I have never heard anyone pronounce the T in “soften” and now I can keep from going back to re-listen (at 1:51)
oh noooo I can't un-hear it now !
I never heard anyone not pronounce it, sofen sounds weird to me
I believe he does it on purpose for those asmr vibes
I don't see the issue
Ironically a hard 't' in 'soften'.
My Moroccan grandma started crying when you added the honey. Smh.
🍯 = 😭
Good or Bad way?
בדוק
@@christopherch bad way
Food is anarchy
The best variation of shakshuka I’ve had was a Korean style with gochujang and gochugaru mixed into the sauce
i always love learning the "basics" of a dish i've never even heard of :D
Michael Vogt btw it’s called different things in different countries, U might know it as Italian baked eggs
I found out about it last year on Jamie Oliver’s Food Tube channel. It’s fantastic.
@@rizzy6087 are Shakshuka and Huevos Rancheros basically the same thing?
krowatt I googled it and it seems no
6:30
The tomato can is blurred?
Maybe if they sponsored Andrew, it'd be unblurred
its just because its someone elses sponsored video i think so probably a contract clause not to promote others as he normally shows all the brands on normal videos
No matter what I watch, ur always there.
I'm scared.
Maybe they should get into the paper towel market.
Why not just remove the label? I would think it would be more professional
You are the *ONLY* Western chef who got the North African - Middle Eastern flavours and spices down well, Hats Off to you.
Honey!?!? honey on a Shakshuka would cause riots in the Middle East
That's exactly what I was about to comment, how COULD he put honey in there?
Literally!!! Why do westerners insist on making their sauces sweet i will never understand
@@sparkydoodle96 lol their taste is different
yes and we all know theres enough riots already
In Turkey, we do not use eggs. The main ingridients are tomato and eggplant, what about yours guys?
Totally LOVE shakshuka, I was really excited when I saw that you uploaded this! I usually use a healthy (read: bordering on excessive) amount of cumin when making it ahaha
is there any other way?
When he first put the food on the counter, I thought he was gonna shout my boy Not Another Cooking Show 😂
First time heard about this dish from you and since than its a dish that I prepare at least twice a week. So many possible variations! Thanks
When you realize that you actually have the ingredients to make a dish from the babish cookery.
The way that egg kept rolling away gave me mad anxiety, was really glad when it finally stopped.
Can you imagine spilling so much on camera
*YOU get sponsored by paper towels?*
It’s the sick who need the doctor
You're a towel
I made the Italian version tonight and it was a huge hit!!! Tasted amazing. Looking forward to trying the other variations
Actually in Italy we have a shakshuka-alike recipe. It's called the "eggs in purgatory", which is just eggs, tomato sauce, parsley, oil, garlic
"Hey whats up you guys today we're gonna be making shakshuka"
Me a Middleeasterner: "woah, its like he connects with his fans directly"
btw im also eating it while writing this comment.
Just asking: he calls it a "breakfast"...Is it a Breakfast? :S
@@eclipsedbadger i cant speak for everyone everywhere obviously but ive only seen it on breakfast menus
شلونه الحجي
Tejoncita usually breakfast also works for dinner
So glad to see how far you’ve come bro. Awesome work, awesome food, awesome sponsors! Keep up the great work!
I love your comment about cilantro flavoring. One of the restaurants I worked in customers always requested more cilantro. (we put it in damn near everything) proof customers have no idea about flavor they just wanted to feel like their dish was something special.
"A half teaspoon of aleppo"
Gary Johnson: " half teaspoon of what?"
I keep seeing that name in the comments here, who is he? And what does he have to do with Aleppo?
@@JohnSmith-dr5zn He was a Libertarian candidate in the 2016 Presidential election and during a town hall/debate he was asked a question about Aleppo because of the ongoing civil war in Syria. His response was, "What is Aleppo?"
this is SPICY i love it
what a random and oddly fitting 'meme'? its pretty weak as far as memes go.
scrolled down to make sure this was posted
Binging with babish: uploads
Everyone: *GOES STRAIGHT TO THE COMMENT SECTION*
And so did you
The Shakshuka looks great! There's just one detail that irritated me: If you put the whole cumin in with the ground spices, you won't get the best flavour out of it and it might stay sort of tough. From what I know of Indian cooking, whole spices generally go into the hot oil before anything else. And once they're golden, you can proceed with the onions, grlic, etc. Then you add the ground spices.
i never even heard of shakshuka before i saw this video, made some for me and my roommates the other night and it was a big hit! thanks oliver
Babish: "Stay tuned for next week when I'll be bringing you another quick recipe... for French toast."
Me: *sits up straighter Wha-wha-what was that? YES, PLEASE.
Why not French toast a waffle or pancake..... yeah I've been kinda bored in quarentine lol
@@jacobbenns6090 lmao imagine being in quarantine
eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, cream if you have it. i hate when people make it with eggs and at most a bit of sugar/milk only, its an affront to the good name of french toast.
Was that an intentional reference to an extremely old internet meme or
@@kazeshi2 Oh yeah! Vanilla and cinnamon is a must, for sure. I've used milk but never tried cream, though. I'll have to give it a try sometime. Nutmeg sounds interesting too!
This is great but when are we getting Basics with Babish: Babish
when ur from tunisia and see an expert version of ur food xD
@Mahbouba Fawzia I was lowkey hoping he'd grab a crunchy ass baguette. Apparently not.
Every tunisian that says this is better than his home food has no pride or honor
I disagree my brother and friend... I found that he went too much creative / crazy with the Feta cheese and honey topping.
Maybe it's remastered or "revisitée" version, but i won't call it expert version.
But let's agree that this episode put (indirectly) in honor our wonderful 🇹🇳🇹🇳🇹🇳😁😁😁
Algerian nd this comment made my day 😂
@@HT-rk8pc it is but please don't tell el walda (mother)
bro my jaw dropped when i saw bounty, OUR BOY BABISH MADE IT!!! A WHOLE PAPER TOWEL COMPANYYYY. love you man
A tunisian watching a shakshuka reicpe with feta cheese and honey is like an italian watching a pizza recipe with pineapple.
0:04 NOT ANOTHER COOKING SHOW would have something to say about that
It is with great shame that i reveal to you the comment section, that when I heard babish say 'tomats' i thought it was a genuine chefs term.
In french, 'tomates' (tomatoes) is pronounced toe-mat (no s sound), so close enough?
the t sound is pronounced in french though
I love shakshuka. I never thought of flavoring it in any other way than Middle Eastern, but this expanded my thinking. 😊
Thanks, brother!
