Cook sliced zucchini in a little oil until nearly tender, then add chopped tomato and let its liquid reduce. Add beaten or whole eggs and cook until set to make zucchini and tomato with egg. Season with salt, pepper, and herbs.
No, peeling zucchini is not necessary for zucchini and tomato with egg. Rinse it well, trim the ends, and slice it; the skin helps the pieces hold their shape as they cook.
Zucchini and tomato with egg turns watery when the vegetables release more liquid than can evaporate. Cook uncovered, avoid crowding the pan, and let the tomato liquid reduce before adding the eggs.
Cook the eggs in zucchini and tomato with egg over low to medium heat and remove the pan as soon as they set. Continuing to cook them after they firm up makes the eggs dry and rubbery.
Black pepper, paprika, and parsley work well in zucchini and tomato with egg. Fresh dill or basil can also complement the vegetables; add delicate fresh herbs near the end so their flavor stays bright.
Yes, zucchini and tomato with egg can be baked. Soften the vegetables first so excess liquid can evaporate, transfer them to an oven-safe dish, add the eggs, and bake until the eggs are set.
No, zucchini and tomato with egg is not automatically shakshuka. Shakshuka is typically eggs cooked in a spiced tomato sauce, while this dish features zucchini as well; adding spices or other vegetables makes it a variation rather than the same fixed recipe.
Serve zucchini and tomato with egg with toast, crusty bread, or a simple green salad. Bread is useful for soaking up the tomato juices, while salad makes the meal feel fresher and lighter.
You can cook the zucchini and tomato ahead, but add and cook the eggs just before serving for the best texture. Fully cooked leftovers are still usable, though reheated eggs are usually firmer.
Zucchini and tomato with egg keeps for about 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly after cooking and reheat only the portion you plan to eat.

Zucchini and tomato with egg is a simple skillet dish: zucchini and tomatoes are cooked until tender, then eggs are added, either left whole or stirred through. It is a familiar home-style preparation in Turkey, with each cook adjusting the proportions and seasoning to taste.
It works well for breakfast or brunch, and can also make a light lunch or supper with bread. The vegetables bring freshness and some fibre, while the egg adds protein; the amount of cooking oil affects how rich the dish is. For a lighter version, use a little oil and let the vegetables soften gently. Serve with plain yoghurt or a crisp salad.
