Waiting for a cook
Tunisia
Slata masmouta, the "boiled salad", is the Tunisian cousin of Russian salad: potatoes, carrots and peas boiled together with the eggs, cut into cubes and mixed with tuna in olive oil, black olives and often beetroot and tomato, dressed with olive oil, lemon and parsley (or a little mayonnaise in newer kitchens). It is lighter than mechouia, made in every season, eaten warm or cold as a starter, a side to grilled fish, or a filling for bread.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 11 ingredients and 6 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
