Made with red peppers, chillies, paprika and a few aromatics this sauce is an excellent all purpose sauce to lift any meal and very versatile. I use it as a side\/dipping sauce with Mediterranean grills, kebabs, roast veggies, its also delicious with grilled fish, chickpeas and with eggs. Harissa sauce comes ready to eat as a paste in jars and tubes, but I find making fresh at home has an exquisite flavor and can be catered to any spice level. Its easy to put together once you&#8217;ve sorted the chillies. I encourage you to try the recipe and use it over everything! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"16168\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/?attachment_id=16168\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?fit=1654%2C2500&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1654,2500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D750&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1614698801&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;70&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;500&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.008&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_5898\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?fit=677%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?resize=906%2C1370\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16168\" width=\"906\" height=\"1370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?resize=677%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 677w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?resize=198%2C300&amp;ssl=1 198w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?resize=768%2C1161&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?resize=1016%2C1536&amp;ssl=1 1016w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?resize=1355%2C2048&amp;ssl=1 1355w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/DSC_5898.jpg?w=1654&amp;ssl=1 1654w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 906px) 100vw, 906px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>7-8 dried chillies\u00a0(<em><strong>Choose couple medium hot, couple mild and 1-2 ho<\/strong>t) Best are Mexican for medium heat: New Mexico,  Guajillo, Chile Arbol and for hot I like 1-2 dried or fresh Thai chillies<\/em> <\/li><li>2 large fresh or jarred roasted red peppers\u00a0drained well<\/li><li>2\u00a0tablespoons sun dried tomatoes in olive oil, drained and chopped<\/li><li>1\u00a0teaspoon sweet smoked paprika<\/li><li>\u00bd-1 teaspoon\u00a0cayenne pepper<\/li><li>1 tablespoon tomato paste\u00a0<\/li><li>2-3 tablespoons e.v olive oil<\/li><li>4\u00a0large garlic cloves\u00a0peeled<\/li><li>1\u00a0teaspoon ground\u00a0caraway seeds\u00a0toasted <\/li><li>2\u00a0teaspoon\u00a0ground coriander<\/li><li>1 heaped teaspoon\u00a0ground cumin<\/li><li>Sea salt as needed<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">DIRECTIONS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Soak and prepare the dried chilles<\/strong>.
