Tokhm o banjon roomey

Tokhm o banjon roomey, translates directly to “eggs and tomatoes” and is a simple and hearty dish, similar to a Middle Eastern shakshuka. This version originates from Zaheda Ghani’s father, who would whip up a batch for speedy family lunches. This one-pan wonder is ready in just 15 minutes for a filling and nutritious meal.
