Fricasse
A fricasse is a savory fried pastry often filled with tuna, hard-boiled egg, olives, harissa, preserved lemons, capers and mashed potato, with turmeric as a condiment. They are usually purchased from traditional Tunisian food vendors. They can be made at home or in fast food restaurants.
Oral history claims that the recipe originates in 19th century Tunisia.
Fricasse is also widely popular in Israel, where it was introduced by Tunisian Jews who fled antisemitic violence.
