Directions
Tunisian Brik (Essential Mediterranean), This is a beautiful and unusual dish from Tunisia In Tunisia, almost anything can go inside a brik Tuna and anchovies are the most popular, though This particular recipe doesn’t incorporate the usual potato mixture Instead of filo pastry, you can also use large spring roll wrappers, then deep fry the finished briks in hot oil , This was an unusual and delicious treat I served it as part of a middle easter lunch and DH said I could make this any time, as he absolutely loved it Thanks for sharing the recipe
