Tunisian Tajine is also one of my favorites.
This dish is made in different ways, nothing is wrong and nothing is right, different from family to family.

minutesSome people use herbs such as parsley with chicken or tuna.
I have found the one recipe that I like best and stick to it.
Tunisian Tajine is not the same as the Moroccan tajine, the Moroccan is a stew cooked in a clay pot.
Ingredients
10 eggs
1small can of sour cream
4 pieces of natural cream cheese (about 4 teaspoons of natural cream cheese)
1 pinch baking powder
1 chicken fillet
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt
A handful of grated cheese (here I have used cheddar, but you can use what you have in the fridge)
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 small onion
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup of Water
1 potato
How to prepare Tunisian Tajine
- I cut the chicken, potato and onion into small pieces.
Then I fry them in a hot pan with little oil along with the spices until the onion becomes soft. - I pour over the water and let it simmer under the lid until the potatoes are tender.
I let it cool down. - Then I whip eggs lightly and mix in sour cream, cheese, baking powder and cream cheese carefully in a bowl.
I pour over what I have cooked and mix it carefully. - Finally I pour everything into a greased baking dish.
- Bake at 180 degrees until it is golden. You can check if it done using a knife (when there is nothing sticking to the knife it is ready).
- Let it cool slightly before cutting it.
