It goes without saying that this specialty is available from north to south of the country with different variations on the bread and the recipe that consists mainly of potatoes and peppers. There who also put tomatoes and zucchini. Everything is fried with eggs.
If some confuse it with the “tastira” that is served as an accompaniment to fish, keftagi is served in a little more affluent backgrounds or with liver meatballs identified with 4 spices. The capital of keftagi is said to be the city of Kairouan but then where is one of the best in the city? Just outside of the city right from the El Kasbah right in front of the post. From 9-10 am, the tavern is always full and it takes at least half an hour wait for a keftagi sandwich with fries lightly dusted with cumin! But trust me, the wait is worth it!.
