Tunisian Egg Brik
The egg brik is one of the treasures of Tunisian cuisine, a simple yet delicious appetizer. Each bite combines the crispiness of the brik, the softness of the runny egg, and the intense flavor of tuna and capers. In the streets of Tunis, it's often enjoyed after a visit to the souk, still hot and fragrant. This 100% halal recipe is perfect for a light dinner or a spectacular starter. Serve it with a mechouia salad and a bit of harissa to spice it up. A true journey to Tunisia in every bite!
