This unusual concoction could be considered a Tunisian hummus it was that good. Never expected to enjoy this mixture but made a very tasty side dish (I know this is a salad served at the beginning of the meal). Very thick and creamy and probably designed to help fill the belly when the meal is not very much, as it is in many parts of the world.
