aunt squishy's spanish egg shakshuka

Pro Tip: Using a fork or toothpick to swirl the egg whites after adding the eggs to the sauce will help contain them in their individual depressions/dimples. Removing the pan from the stove entirely as opposed to just turning it off will prevent the eggs from overcooking before serving. This dish is also really delicious served over lightly buttered basmati rice
