Fiery Tunisian Harrisa image

Try rubbing this chile paste on meats or fish before searing or grilling, or stir a small spoonful into some mayonnaise for a sandwich spread with a kick. Also mix a dollop into butter and toss with steamed veggies or couscous. The hotter the chiles, the hotter the harissa, so experiment and use sparingly to taste. Enjoy!

Time 35m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 smoked chili peppers, such as ancho or chipotle
8 dried hot red chili peppers, such as New Mexico or cascabel
1 tablespoon cumin seed
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
1 teaspoon caraway seed
8 garlic cloves
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Remove seeds and stems from chiles. Cover in boiling water and set aside for 20 minutes to plump and rehydrate.
  • Meanwhile, preheat a small dry skillet over medium-high heat and toast cumin, coriander and caraway seeds for 2 to 3 minutes, until seeds are fragrant and begin to pop. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Transfer seeds to a blender and grind them to a powder.
  • Drain chiles and add to blender with garlic, olive oil and salt. Blend to a smooth paste. Cover and keep in refrigerator for up to 2 months.

I made this harissa last night and it was a bit too spicy for me. I think I'll use less chili peppers next time.

This harissa is amazing! I love the smoky flavor and the heat is perfect. I used it to make shakshuka and it was the best shakshuka I've ever had.
