Hello,
My husband is from Ben Arous, and I have been to Tunisia several times to learn how to cook. The main dish in this area is cous cous, although harisa is not really featured in this dish, the slata mechouia is the best thing to feature the harisa. Most Tunisians prefer slata mechouia with grilled lamb, but any grilled meat will do. Macrona is another main dish that is sooooo yummy with lots of harisa. Its is the basic tunisian spices with tomato paste and bay leaves and chick peas and meat, when you make this sauce you can use any pasta but the ditalini pasta is best and serve it with hot peppers cooked in the sauce. He will love your efforts! They really take pride in their food!
