EGYPTIAN SPICED CARROT PUREE
The Egyptian spice blend known as dukka includes toasted ground cumin, coriander and sesame seeds; Sortun gives it a twist by adding toasted coconut. The carrot dish here is traditionally eaten by first dipping bread in oil and then in the dukka before spooning the puree on top. It's typical of North Africa's qimia--a version of tapas or meze. Harissa is a fiery Tunisian spice paste. It is available in jars and tubes at many specialty food shops. If you cant find it, i have read that you can sub chili garlic paste or other hot sauce, but I bet the harissa is much better. MAKE AHEAD: The recipe can be prepared up to 2 days ahead. Refrigerate the carrots and store the spice mixture at room temperature.

EGYPTIAN SPICED CARROT PUREE
From Food and Wine. Found in my quest to find some recipes to use my new ready-made harissa spice blend. The recipe can be prepared up to 2 days ahead. Refrigerate the carrots and store the spice mixture at room temperature. Tip: Adding all four teaspoons of harissa to this dip might make it too spicy for you, so mix it in gradually and taste as you go.
