Harissa Hummus Recipe
Report
This harissa hummus is a mildly spicy and flavorful Middle Eastern take on traditional hummus. Make it with our easy homemade harissa, or use a store-bought version. It's a delicious dip or spread for snack boards and sandwiches, and it takes just 15 minutes to make!

Ingredients
Harissa Hummus
- 14 ounce can of chickpeas drained and rinsed
- ¼ cup Tahini
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1-3 tablespoons harissa see notes
- ½ teaspoon sea salt or more, to taste
- 1 clove garlic minced
- Juice from ½ lemon
The Platter
- Fresh cut veggies
- Grilled or toasted bread gluten-free if needed
- berries
- olives
Homemade Harissa
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- ½ red onion
- 4 cloves garlic
- 2 chiles de árbol small red chilis
- 1 tablespoon EACH: tomato paste and olive oil
- ½ teaspoon EACH: cumin, coriander, and sea salt
- Juice from ½ lemon
Instructions
- If you're making your own harissa, do that first. Put all the ingredients into your food processor or blender and blend until mostly smooth. Transfer to a jar.
- Add the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, harissa, sea salt, garlic, and lemon juice to your food processor or blender. (No need to clean it first if you've made the harissa!) Blend on high until smooth. Taste and season with more sea salt, if you'd like.
- Serve the harissa hummus with lots of fresh veggies and some grilled or toasted bread. Olives and berries are nice additions to the platter!
Notes
- Store-bought harissa can vary in spiciness. If you're hesitant about spice, add a little to start then adjust until you get the spiciness level you are comfortable with. We use 3 tablespoons of the homemade harissa. If you're using store-bought harissa, we prefer Mina Harissa.
