Stuffed Camel Spleen

Stuffed camel spleen is a traditional specialty prepared with tehal (camel's spleen) that's stuffed with camel meat, lamb, and ground beef along with spices, olives, and hump fat. These huge loaves are baked in communal bread ovens. After it has been baked, the stuffed camel spleen is sliced, fried, and served in a sandwich, often using batbout (a Moroccan type of pita bread). The filling can be enriched with vegetables, eggs, and herbs, and the texture of stuffed spleen is described as creamy and soft, with a gamey flavor.
