Salade Mechouia (grilled salad)

A traditional Tunisian salad

Ingredients:

  • 6 large organic green peppers
  • 2 large organic tomatoes
  • 2 organic garlic cloves
  • Salt, pepper, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp coriander
  • 5 tbsp Mycena organic olive oil
  • 2 hard-boiled organic eggs
  • Organic tuna fillet in a jar

Preparation:

Wash tomatoes, halve, wash peppers, remove stem and seeds and halve.

Peel the garlic.

Place the vegetables (peppers, tomatoes and garlic) on a baking tray and bake or grill at 220° until browned. Turn the vegetables occasionally.

Remove the skin from the cooked vegetables and chop them finely (with a sharp knife or briefly with a blender).

Mix the vegetable mixture with salt and spices and chopped garlic. Pour Mycena organic olive oil over the vegetables and decorate with hard-boiled eggs (quartered) and tuna.

In Tunisia, salade mechouia is eaten with baguette. It is very popular as a side dish to grilled fish (sea bream, sea bass, etc.) or grilled lamb fillet.
