How to make Shakshuka, and why did it end up in Spain.
Introduction
Given Andalusia's rich eventful history, it has an unordinarily diverse culture. There are Arabic, Roman and other influences. Shashouka is an Arabic dish, connecting it to the time that Muslims reigned over Andalusia (711-1492). The whole Iberian Peninsula was called Al-Andalus in the Arabic world, and the name 'Andalusia' originates from this heritage.
