In this fourth episode of Breaking Bread, we meet Muhi Bakini, who is the supervisor for the Abbotsford Local Immigration Partnership. Muhi was born in Sudan and faced a great many challenges, moving many times before ultimately landing in the Fraser Valley. His story is full of moments of community and support, including the couple that sponsored him to come to Canada, which exemplifies the welcoming community in Chilliwack we look to create.
In this episode, this Sudanese twist on the classic shakshuka is known for its heartier, drier texture. Enjoy its colorful mix of peppers and tomatoes, plus just the right amount of chili heat from hot green chilies. Breaking Bread is co-produced by Rise Baking Lab and the Chilliwack Local Immigration Partnership. Special thanks to Chilliwack Community Services for their support.

Recipe:
Ingredients
4 tomatoes, chopped finely
½ green pepper, chopped finely
½ red pepper, chopped finely
2 cloves garlic, chopped finely
1 hot green chili , chopped finely (use more or less for spice)
7 eggs
Black pepper, to taste
Salt, to taste
1 tablespoon oil (for cooking)
Instructions
1. Prep & Season
Combine the chopped tomatoes, peppers, and garlic in a bowl. Sprinkle with black pepper.
In a separate bowl, crack all the eggs, whisk them well, and add salt to taste.
2. Cook the Eggs First
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat.
Pour in the whisked eggs and let them cook just until they begin to set.
3. Add the Vegetables
Once the eggs start to firm up, stir in the chopped vegetables.
Keep stirring gently, allowing the moisture to cook off.
4. Adjust salt to taste
If the mixture seems watery (often from juicy tomatoes), turn the heat a bit higher. A drier, more crumbly texture is key to this Sudanese-style shakshuka.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Serve hot, straight from the pan. Pair with bread, flatbread, or your favorite side.
Pro Tip: If you like extra spice, toss in an extra chili. For milder heat, remove the seeds and membranes from the pepper before chopping.
