Shakshouka isn't actually of Israeli origin, but from the Maghreb. Kind of co-opted in the way Israelis like to co-opt anything good and pretend they invented it . Its actually quite good, but more of a cold weather thing.

I personally think the meal Americans really got it right on is breakfast. Real pancakes (especially buckwheat), eggs and chicken/apple sausage sounds about right to me.

That said, I also love the basic French breakfast of crusty bread, soft cheese, fresh fruit preserves and jet fuel...I mean good coffee. Similarly, the Iranian version, with fresh bread, feta, chopped tomatoes and cucumbers (I'm not a sar shir fan) and perhaps some yogurt and honey.

I'm also a fan of congee - especially with herbs, peanuts and dried anchovies.
