- 2 Anaheim pepper or 1 poblano, green
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
- 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon salt sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
- 3/4 cup cilantro

Grilled Cheese
- 8 sourdough bread slices
- spinach leaves, a few handfuls
- 2 to 3 cups havarti cheese grated
- extra-virgin olive oil for grilling
Instructions
- Make the green harissa. Char the peppers over a gas burner or under a broiler until the skin is blackened all over. Remove from the heat and place in a bowl and cover with a towel or plastic wrap for 10 minutes. Slice off the stem and place the peppers, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, salt, honey, cilantro, pepitas and a few grinds of black pepper into a food processor and pulse until combined. Drizzle in the olive oil and process until smooth.
- Make the grilled cheese. Slather the green harissa on the insides of each slice of bread. Assemble with spinach leaves and cheese. Pre-heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Brush the outsides of the sandwich with olive oil and grill on each side until the cheese is melted.
