Quality spices and a lot of time.

I used to order it often at restaurants then I dialed it in at home and can’t believe I would spend so much on a dish that’s essentially tasty, spices spaghetti sauce with eggs.

This dish is one of my favorites.

I gibe myself a loooot of time for it and basically slow cook the paprika for about 30 minutes to he rid of all the bitterness. most recipes call for an oven as well, but I just put the eggs on top at then end and let them cook there. Just taking it slow would be my advice.

Poached-ish. It cooks in the red sauce, but its generally a shallow poach unlike where you tradionally fully submerge it in the liquid.

I personally much prefer a fried egg on toast with the sauce poured on top, but that isnt exactly a shakshuka.

Nothing about this presentation is "phenomenonal". I don't know what you're smoking.
