Tfaya is a traditional side dish or condiment that's a specialty of Fez. It's made with caramelized onions, raisins, honey, cinnamon, saffron, and ginger. Once prepared, this sweet topping is used immediately or it's left to cool. Tfaya is most commonly used as a topping for couscous, spooned over the top of the dish. It's also served with grilled meat, in sandwiches, or alongside fruit, nuts, and cheese on a cheeseboard. In Fez, there is also a savory tfaya made with slowly cooked lamb, onions, hard-boiled eggs, and blanched almonds, and this type of tfaya is served only during festive events and celebrations.
