Brik à l'Oeuf

A whole egg slipped into a paper-thin pastry with tuna and parsley, folded and fried for barely a minute so the shell shatters and the yolk runs when you bite it.

Resep oleh Tunisian street kitchens · 🏺 Tradisional · The counter-and-cart side of Tunisian food — fried to order, eaten standing, and hotter with harissa than any tourist expects.

Tunisian · street classic — An ownerless traditional dish, so no cook is credited. The cited article confirms brik as a thin pastry parcel, most famously filled with egg and tuna in Tunisia, and situates it in the wider börek family. This recipe is the Tunisian brik à l'oeuf specifically. Quantities and method here are this book's own.

Langkah

  1. Mix the tuna, onion, parsley, capers and harissa. Season lightly — the tuna is already salty.

  2. Heat 1.5 cm of oil in a wide pan to 180 °C. Have a slotted spoon ready before you start folding.

  3. Lay one pastry sheet on a plate, spoon a quarter of the filling onto one half and make a well in the middle.

  4. Crack an egg into the well, fold the pastry over into a half-moon and press the edges shut.

    💡 Work fast and fry it immediately — the egg white soaks the pastry within a minute and it will tear as you lift it.

  5. Slide it into the oil and fry 45–60 seconds a side, spooning hot oil over the top, until golden and blistered.

  6. Drain briefly and eat at once, with lemon. The yolk must still be liquid.

💡 Tips

  • Eat it Tunisian-style: hold it by one corner, bite the opposite corner first and catch the yolk. There is no dignified method.
  • Overcooking by 30 seconds sets the yolk and the dish loses its whole point.
  • Vegetarian version: swap the tuna for mashed potato with parsley — a common Tunisian variant in its own right.
