directions

  • Preheat oven to 180ºC.
  • Heat your tagine on the stove and add some olive oil with the onion and cook slowly for about 5 minutes, add the spices and cook for a further 3 minutes, this releases the flavours.
  • Add the tomatoes and coriander then simmer for about 10-15 minutes, make sure you stir occasionally and reduce to a sauce consistency.
  • Remove from the heat and pour the beaten eggs over the sauce, cover with the tagine lid and place in the oven for about 10-15 minutes or until it lightly puffs and sets.
  • To serve, season well and drizzle with a little olive oil.

  1. Excellent recipe - I didn't have an oven proof pot so I added the eggs to the pan and put a lid on it and simmered it for 15 minutes. The eggs cooked and were absolutely delicious but they didn't stay on top of the tomatoes like in the traditional berber omelette. Did anyone else have this problem? Resolution?
     
  2. Flavors of the Middle East done up in a light, fluffy omelette, so different and so good, I cut it way back as there are only 2 of us, but that's the only change I made. Still had a fairly large, thick and fluffy omelette that we WILL be having again.
     
  3. I had a delicious breakfast this morning with this recipe. I was only serving myself so I made 1 serving in a small ceramic dish that I covered with foil for the baking. After tasting I thought I;d like a bit of couscous on the side but had already made toast. Excellent and will made again.
     
  4. This recipe is very good, but we liked it better after adding a little bit of ground red pepper.
