Directions
For the Filo
Step 1
In a bowl add the water, salt, and flour and mix well until you get a consistency of a very diluted tahini/pancake batter.
150 ml water
5 gr salt
100 gr flour
Step 2

Step 3
Heat up a pan on medium heat for about 3-4 min.
Step 4

Step 5
After the top of the filo sheet gets dry, use a spatula to remove it from the pan. Place on a plate and layer all the filo sheets on top of each other until you finish all the batter.

For the Burika
Step 1
Now it's time to build the Burika. In the meantime, heat up a small pot full of canola oil.
canola oil
Step 2
In a small bowl, place the filo sheet.
Step 3
Add the tuna, harissa, cilantro, crack the egg in and add some salt on top.
1 tbsp of canned tuna
1 tbsp of harissa
9 leaves of cilantro
1 free range egg
pinch of salt
Step 4
Close the filo sheet in half to a half-circle shape. If for some reason the filo sheet tears apart you can definitely do it with two sheets for one burika.
Step 5
Bring the bowl with the burika close to the pot with the oil. Drop the burika in the oil and deep fry for 2 min, until it gets a nice color. Pay attention that if you will deep fry it longer than that the egg yolk won't be runny (up to you gingies).
Step 6
Break the burika over a salad and enjoy this absolutely insanely delicious bite!
