Method
Preheat a fan oven to 160°C. Spoon the sauce into a large oven-proof baking dish. Put the baking dish into the oven for about 10-15 minutes (this allows the sauce to warm through). Using a large spoon, make 5 pockets/dimples in the sauce and immediately crack an egg into each space. Cover the baking dish with a large saucepan lid or tinfoil—Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
Serve your shakshuka/baked eggs with torn coriander leaves on top, crusty bread for dunking into the sauce, and a wedge of lime on the side to give it an extra sour kick.
