Mechouia is a Tunisian summer salad made with tomatoes and peppers. Salad Mechouia is often prepared in two versions; hot and mild, depending on the pepper taste. For those who like it hot, Salad Mechouia made spicy is a perfect accompaniment to lamb or grilled fish. Usually the mild Salad Mechouia is consumed as an appetizer or served with high quality tuna, olives and eggs as an aperitif, spread on grilled toasts or as an accompaniment to baked or fried fish or grilled pork or chicken.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of harissa, but I still enjoyed this salad. The roasted vegetables were delicious and the tomatoes were nice and juicy. I would make it again, but I would probably use a milder chili sauce.
