I LOVE baked eggs as a nice filling brunch, and especially when baked in the strong and spicy flavours of a 'shakshuka'. However this time I decided to make a dish I love, linked with one of my new favourite drinks ive had since coming to canada... the EPIC caesar.


To those of your outside of Canada, a Caesar is similar to a Bloody Mary, however it is served with clamato juice inside, which creates a rich, and flavoursome taste.


When making this dish I didnt actually use Vodka in the recipe, however if you wanted to i think it would go lovely with the rich tomatey sauce.


With a ceasar drink, they often come topped with different foods which compliment the drink. This can range from pickles, to beef jerky, celery and even onion rings. So i decided to add some toppings to my caesar shakshuka and added pickles and celery, and it was delicious. The pickles went so well with the eggs and the celery was a great additional spoon to scoop up the leftover sauce!


Serve with some fresh bread, pitta, or simply eat on its own.
