Brik is one of Tunisia’s most iconic street foods: a delicate pastry filled with tuna, parsley, capers, and a whole egg, folded into a triangle and fried until golden and crispy. It’s crunchy on the outside, soft and savory inside, and often eaten with a squeeze of lemon. Served everywhere from street stalls to family kitchens, Brik is a Tunisian classic.

Marqa is a hearty Tunisian stew, slow-simmered with tomatoes, spices, and tender lamb. Served with couscous or fresh bread, it’s a warming, bold dish that reflects Tunisia’s love of spice and comfort. This version uses lamb shoulder simmered in a tomato-based sauce with chickpeas and vegetables.
Couscous is Tunisia’s national dish — a fragrant semolina grain steamed and served with a rich sauce of meat, fish, or vegetables. Unlike Moroccan couscous, Tunisian couscous often has a spicy kick thanks to harissa, making it bold and deeply satisfying. This recipe brings together tender lamb (or fish), seasonal vegetables, and the signature flavors of North Africa in one dish.
