TUNISIAN HARISSA

Harissa is a blend of spices with red pepper and garlic. Its consistency is like tomato paste. It is used in Tunisia and Algeria, and probably all over North Africa, to add rich, spicy, hot flavor to prepared food. It's also used as a snack, spread on french bread (or other bread) that has been spread with olive oil. You can use harissa in many other dishes, just to spice things up!

Steps:

  • Cut off the tops of the dried red peppers, and deseed them.
  • Soften them in a bowl of water for a half hour, then put them in a colander to drain them a bit.
  • Take the skins off the garlic.
  • Put them in a blender, add the red peppers, the salt, caraway, coriander, and 1 teaspoon of water.
  • Also, add 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Blend this until it is like a paste.
  • Add olive oil to taste.
  • The oil will lessen somewhat the intensity of the spice.

  • Put the dried chiles in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Let them sit for 20 minutes. Heat a small skillet over medium heat and dry roast the caraway, coriander, and cumin seeds, frequently stirring them, until very fragrant, about 4-5 minutes. Let them cool completely and then transfer them to a spice or coffee grinder (or mortar and pestle) and grind them to a fine powder.
  • Next, drain and squeeze the chiles to release as much liquid as you can. Add them to a food processor along with the ground spices, olive oil, garlic, salt, and lemon juice. Process to a smooth paste. Add more olive oil if it’s too dry. Transfer the paste to a glass jar and pour some extra olive oil on top, about 1/4 inch in depth. After each use, top it off with olive oil. Keep refrigerated. Will keep for about 3 weeks.Makes about 1 cup.

  • In a large bowl, combine olive oil, harissa, garlic, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the spice mix and mix well to incorporate. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Heat a large saucepan on medium without any oil, then transfer the chicken from the bowl to the saucepan. Cook until the chicken is well done, about 8-10 minutes. When it’s cooked, squeeze some fresh lime juice on top of the chicken.
  • Serve over rice with a lime wedges and fresh mint, if desired. Due to the spice level, plain yogurt also works really well with the recipe.

11 WAYS TO USE HARISSA | EPICURIOUS

From epicurious.com
Estimated Reading Time 2 mins
  • Roast Chicken With Harissa and Schmaltz. While you can find harissa in prepared tubes, you can make the spicy paste yourself, using dried peppers, olive oil, and cumin.
  • Pan-Roasted Chicken with Harissa Chickpeas. If you do end up going with a store-bought version of harissa, be sure to taste before adding. There's a huge difference in spice levels in different brands of jars and tubes.
  • Chicken Cacciatore with Harissa, Bacon, and Rosemary. Chicken cacciatore, that slow-cooked Italian classic of chicken thighs and tomato sauce, could use some shaking up.
  • Harissa-and-Maple-Roasted Carrots. Next time you make a rich main like lamb, this spicy side of harissa-glazed carrots belongs on the table. The heat breaks through the fatty cut of lamb, and the spicy character of harissa works with the gamier flavors.
  • Panfried Sea Bass with Harissa & Rose. Take a meaty fish like sea bass to eleven with a harissa and rose sauce. In this recipe, use harissa as a marinade and to finish the dish as it simmers.
