One-pot harissa-spiced aubergine and eggs recipe

One-pot harissa-spiced aubergine and eggs

This fibre-packed take on a classic shakshuka recipe is made with the addition of couscous, aubergines and chickpeas in a rich, harissa-spiced tomato sauce. Cook the eggs to your liking, we prefer ours a little runny and serve with a scattering of parsley and crusty bread, if you like.
