Eggs: Tunisian Eggs & Peppers

Gourmed

This Tunisian dish will be loved by all! Sometimes we undervalue simplicity, and serve our guests dishes that have complicated procedures and elaborate tastes. Try serving this at a dinner party, with thinly cut fried potatoes, and you will be surprised by the reactions! Make sure to buy your eggs from a local farmer and use seasonal vegetables!
