I am so glad I made this tonight! So yummy! I did miss the intense tomato flavor in other recipes, so I did add 2 tablespoons of tomato paste. Another thing, I had all the spices, but I also have a lot of mixed seasonings from Israel that friends have brought me, so I used one of the "red ones" that looked pretty similar to the ingredients here, and it worked fine. I added two eggs to it, and it was scrumptious!
