Meat Tagine

This stamp illustrates the “Meat Tagine”, an emblematic dish of Tunisian cuisine which is radically different from the Maghreb stews of the same name. It is a kind of rich, thick, oven-baked omelet made of meat, eggs, cheese, parsley and spices, here presented in a traditional ceramic dish. This visual celebrates the conviviality of family meals and ceremonies, where the tagine occupies a central place as a hearty starter or side dish, reflecting the Tunisian taste for generous and tasty spicy preparations.
