Tunisia's beloved chickpea soup poured over torn stale bread, loaded with harissa, cumin, garlic, and a drizzle of olive oil. A fiery, nourishing breakfast staple.
Lablabi is the ultimate Tunisian street food, served from early morning in small hole-in-the-wall shops across Tunis, Sousse, and Sfax. Workers and students line up for a warm bowl before starting their day. Each diner customises their bowl with as much harissa, cumin, capers, and olive oil as they like. It is simple, frugal cooking at its most satisfying — transforming humble chickpeas and stale bread into something extraordinary.
