I always thought it was the latter, but my coworker believes it is the former. Which one is it?

It comes from french, so I'm almost sure it's tar-ask.

They pronounced it as tar-ask one of the recent WotC Dragon Talk podcasts

It's tah-Rask, according to D&D authors.

Also more or less how I've always heard French speakers say it.
