Tunisian Kefta Skewers with Spices and Tomatoes
These Tunisian kefta skewers are a true flavor journey. In Tunisia, kefta are often prepared for family celebrations or get-togethers with friends, and harissa brings that spicy touch so characteristic of Tunisian cuisine. Are you wondering what the difference is between Tunisian and Moroccan cuisine? Tunisia uses more tomatoes, peppers and chiles, and harissa is queen. Here, the secret is to let the meat rest well so the spices permeate every bite. Serve these skewers with good homemade bread and a fresh salad for a balanced and delicious meal.
