This looks delicious! You said this is a Tunisian recipe? I spent some time in Afghanistan and they had a sweet cake thing that looked similar to this but I think they made it with honey and cinnamon instead of citrus. It was one of my favorite things and I've utterly failed at trying to replicate it myself.

The recipe is Tunisian by way of a small bakery's cookbook. I can PM you the recipe if you'd like. It's very simple and quick to make, so just grab some quality ingredients and you should be good! Not quite the same as the Afghan dessert you mentioned, but it is refreshingly different (and a good pairing with coffee and mint tea).

On the topic of Middle Eastern/South Asian desserts: I will say that my true specialty is baklava. I've played with a couple of different styles over the years (ie. Greek, Turkish, Persian) and have always been pleased with the results. It's something I only make for a crowd, though.
