Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.This simple Tunisian dish is great for breakfast or as a simple light snack or starter – with a little harissa to give it a kick. I love the Belazu rose harissa, which is available in good food shops and supermarkets and which has a lovely hot kick tempered by rose petals. You can use traditional warka pastry leaves, although filo is probably more commonly found in shops and supermarkets; or you could use the thin pastry leaves found in Turkish and Middle Eastern shops. They all work well and are made and turn out in a similar way.
4 sheets of filo or warka pastry measuring about 25-30cm square
4 duck eggs or another egg of your choice, cracked into small individual pots
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2-3tbsp olive oil
Harissa, to serve (optional)
Heat some olive oil in a large, preferably non-stick frying pan. Lay a sheet of pastry into the pan then quickly tip the egg into the centre, season and fold the pastry over into a triangle.
Cook for a minute or so on each side, or until the pastry is crisp but the egg yolk is still soft.
Carefully remove with a spatula and serve immediately with or without the harissa.
