Notes
- The reason this green harissa recipe has so much flavor is the quality of the herbs, the combination of aromatic spices and fresh greens, and the lemon and olive oil to hold it all together.
- Be sure to use fresh spices and herbs for the best taste.
- You can use food processor or mortar and pestle for a more coarse texture of the paste.
- This recipe makes about 1 cup of sauce.
- Use green harissa as a dip, marinade, salad dressing or bread spread. Add it to hummus, buddha bowls, pita pockets, eggs, casseroles, veggie burgers, roasted vegetables, falafel, rice, lentils, couscous dishes or pasta.
- Store harissa in the airtight jar in the coldest part of your fridge for up to one month. Cover the top of a jar with a layer of olive oil to keep it fresh.
- If you want the sauce to be hot, use serrano chilies. For a milder taste, use normal red chilies or jalapeño peppers.
- Instead of fresh garlic, you can use garlic powder.
- Replace olive oil with avocado oil or other neutral oils.
