This lip-smacking meal has many variations. Most notably it can be compared to the Middle Eastern dish ‘shakshuka’ which makes use of their native spices. The Mexicans also have a similar version of this dish called ‘huevos rancheros’. Each region has its own adaption based on its local ingredients and spices.
