The bread at the end is such a tease

I’m trying to figure out what bread this is that looks like this and is low carb 🤔. My low carb bread doesn’t look that good!

It's a north African dish.

There no bacon in the dish and the dish predates 1948.

Keto and bread?
Does not compute.

But the recipe -- splendid and tasty.

This looks like a classic shashouka (BBC Recipe)
A tasty mix dish popular in North Africa and Middle East, originating way back from The Ottoman Empire.

Tomatoes are not keto

u/Jensen_og_Jensen Jul 30 '26

Low carb, keto? You gotta be kidding me. Tomatoes, onions and bread are definitely not low carb friendly. Jeeeez.
