This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Is this similar to shakshouka?

Yes, Shakshuka, Menemen, and the Italian version (called eggs in purgatory) are all eggs in tomato sauce.

The biggest differentiator in my opinion is that menemen's eggs are scrambled and they do not include onion.

Shakshuka has runny yolk and onions. Shakshuka becomes eggs in purgatory if you make the sign of the cross over it (kidding, it's more about the spices/herbs used).

I had a 50/50 shot of getting that right haha.

Next time I'll make it with onions and crumbly cheese and see what I'm missing.

This would be great as Dutch takeaway (meenemen is Dutch for takeaway)

Oh that's an interesting fact! Yeah, I'm surprised someone hasn't tried to make a profit off that pun.
