What it is

The gossamer parcel: brik — a paper-thin malsouka sheet folded over egg, tuna, capers and harissa, fried until it shatters — Tunisia's crispest icon. Ingredients: malsouka (brik pastry), eggs, tuna, capers, parsley, harissa, onions, lemon, oil. Recipe: 1) Lay the sheet in a pan; add tuna, capers, parsley and harissa. 2) Crack an egg in the centre. 3) Fold into a triangle; fry until golden, keeping the yolk runny. 4) Lemon over; eat with hands, tilting against the drip. Serve: at Ramadan iftars and seafood restaurants in La Goulette. Flavor: crisp, eggy, briny fire. History: brik is Ottoman börek's Tunisian reinvention — the runny yolk is the test of the cook.
