It can be flavored with a wide range of spices, such as sumac for tartness, and paprika, Cayenne pepper, or harissa, a hot chili paste that gives it a red color.
It is stuffed into a lamb casing, rather than a pork casing.
It is traditionally made fresh and eaten grilled or with couscous.
Sun-dried merguez is used to add flavor to tagines.

There are many variations of poutine.
Some restaurants offer poutine with such additions as chicken, bacon, or Montreal-style smoked meat.
Some such restaurants even boast a dozen or more variations of poutine.
For instance, more upscale poutine with three-pepper sauce, merguez sausage, foie gras or even caviar and truffle can be found.
Some variations eliminate the cheese, but most Québécois would call such a dish a "frite sauce" ("french fries with sauce") rather than poutine.
Shawinigan and some other regions have "patate-sauce-choux" where shredded raw cabbage replaces cheese.
Fast food combination meals in Canada often have the option of getting french fries "poutinized" by adding cheese curds (or shredded cheese in the Prairies and Western Canada) and gravy.
Over the years, there have been many variations to this Classic Canadian Dish.
Sweet potato, for example, has been invented to be a healthy alternative to french fries.
The idea of adding dietary fiber and vitamins in this classic dish is widely appraised by the public.
Outside Canada, poutine is found in northern border regions of the United States such as New England, the Pacific Northwest and the Upper Midwest.
These regions offer further variations of the basic dish.
Cheeses other than fresh curds are commonly used (most commonly mozzarella cheese), along with beef, brown or turkey gravy.
In the county culture especially, a mixed fry can also come with cooked ground beef on top and is referred to as a hamburger mix, though this is less popular than a regular mix.
