Pas cu pas
- 1
In a medium bowl, combine the tuna, mashed potato, fresh parsley, capers (if using), harissa (if using), salt, and black pepper.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensure the potato is well mashed for a smooth filling.
- 2
Lay one brick pastry sheet flat on a clean surface.

Place half of the tuna-potato mixture in the center of the pastry sheet, forming a small mound.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Leave enough space around the edges to fold.

Carefully crack one egg directly on top of the tuna-potato mixture.

Fold the pastry sheet into a triangle or half-moon shape, enclosing the filling.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Gently press the edges to seal, being careful not to break the pastry.

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches about 170°C (340°F).

Păstrează gustul bun
Brik is best enjoyed fresh; it does not store well as the pastry will lose its crispness.
