Tunisian-Style Brik Pastry with Tuna and Egg
A single portion of Tunisian cooking, ready in 15 minutes with 9 minutes of prep. Written for one, so there is nothing to halve and nothing to waste.
Method
- 1
In a bowl, mix the tuna, onion, capers, parsley and harissa.
- 2
Lay the filo sheets stacked together, spoon the tuna mixture into the centre and make a small well.
- 3
Crack the egg into the well, then fold the pastry over into a semi-circle, sealing the edges with a little water and keeping the egg intact.
- 4
Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the brik for 2 minutes each side until golden and crisp, with the egg still soft inside.
- 5
Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- 6
Drain briefly on kitchen paper and serve with the lemon wedge.
