The World In Your Kitchen - June

One more recipe from this calendar (see the previous ones in each of JanuaryFebruary and April).

This recipe claims to be Tunisian Tagine, or eggeh - a kind of Tunisian omelet that is very different from the Moroccan Tagine. 

Given ingredients and taste, I am not sure this is really authentic.



It is basically a baked omelet where the base is a mixture of tomatoes, bread crumbs, beans and the (cynically said) very authentic Tunisian monterey jack cheese. Beaten eggs are added on top and then baked.


It tasted nice enough, but is it really Tunisian? My stats show at least three Tunisians visiting the blog regularly. If you are reading this, I'd love to hear your thoughts, or even better, receive a more authentic recipe for this (eshmun@shaw.ca). The calendar's recipe is below for those inclined to try it.
