In the streets of Tunisia, you can buy salad sandwiches from many street vendors. They are always served on baguettes and always topped with harissa, the ubiquitous, spicy Tunisian condiment. If you make the harissa ahead of time and keep it stored in your refrigerator (it will keep for months if covered with a thin layer of extra virgin olive oil), this recipe is almost effortless because you use whatever leftovers you already have in the refrigerator. A classic Tunisian sandwich on a baguette includes tuna, potatoes, and lettuce, but you needn’t be limited to Tunisian tradition. As far as we are concerned, anything fresh and good from the sea or the garden belongs between two halves of a baguette!
One 16-inch baguette, cut into 4 pieces, each piece halved
lengthwise 2 cups salad greens Harissa, to taste
(see recipe below, and remember, this condiment can be very spicy, depending on what kind of chilies you use to make it) Leftover fish and vegetables, such as: Cooked tuna Cooked salmon Cooked whitefish Cooked shrimp Sliced boiled potatoes Potato salad Cucumber slices Chopped tomatoes Relish, chutney, or salsa Chopped hard-boiled eggs Sliced red onion
Spread insides of baguettes with harissa. Top each sandwich with ½ cup salad greens and leftover fish and vegetables. Enjoy! Serves 4.
