🇹🇳 Tunisia recipe
Kafteji
Kafteji is Tunisia's most colorful and exuberant home-cooked dish, a joyful medley of individually fried vegetables tossed together with scrambled eggs and spices. Pumpkin, peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes are each fried separately to bring out their individual flavors, then united in a pan where eggs bind everything into a satisfying, rustic hash. It is the kind of everyday Tunisian cooking that never appears in restaurants but lives at the heart of family meals.
