    💡 Tips for Shakshuka with Spiced Feta

    • Prepare ingredients the night before for a quicker morning routine.
    • Use room-temperature eggs for more even cooking and better volume.
    • Don't let garlic burn — add it after other aromatics and cook briefly.
    • Grate cheese fresh rather than pre-shredded for better melting and flavor.
