Tunisian Tagine
29 Mar
Tunisian Tagine is not a stew! This dish is actually an egg dish, a North African version of a quiche without a crust. Feel free to change or add ingredients to your own liking: chicken, spinach, mince meat…
Ingredients
olive oil or butter
1 onion
1 chicken breast
salt & freshly ground pepper
1 tbsp tabil spice
8 eggs
½ cup bread crumbs
½ cup milk
finely chopped flat parsley
150gr grated cheese
Method
Pre heat the oven to 200°C and make sure that the oven dish is well oiled with olive oil or butter. Fry off the onions in olive oil, chops the chicken into small pieces and add to the pan. Season with salt and pepper, add tabil and cook for 5 minutes and leave to cool slightly. In a big bowl, break the eggs, add half of the cheese, milk, parsley and mix well. Add the chicken mix and stir. Pour the mixture into the bowl and spread the rest of the grated cheese over the top. Bake until golden brown, this takes about 40 minutes.
