Fricassee

Merguez is a spicy mutton or beef-based sausage that is popular in Maghrebi cuisine. It consists of uncooked lamb or beef (or both) flavored with a variety of spices such as cumin, harissa, chili pepper, sumac, fennel, and garlic and is popular in Tunisia, Morocco, and Algeria. The heavily seasoned meat mixture is usually stuffed into a lamb intestine casing and grilled.

Fricassee is a traditional Tunisian sandwich that is flavorful but also high in calories. This sandwich can be made at home, but it is especially popular at fast food restaurants and sandwich shops.

Merguez can be eaten on its own or as an ingredient in Tunisian dishes such as mloukhia and ojja. Mloukhia is a Tunisian beef or lamb stew, and ojja is a chakchouka variation made with merguez sausages.
