This green harissa is a delicious blend of green chiles, garlic, cilantro, cumin, ground coriander, and mint. Serve as a condiment with Moroccan dishes or use as a flavor base for any dish where a fresh zing is needed!

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces bird's eye chiles, seeded and stems removed

  • 12 cloves garlic, peeled

  • 1 tablespoon coriander, ground

  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin

  • 1 tablespoon salt

  • 1 tablespoon dried mint

  • ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro

  • ½ cup olive oil

Directions

  1. Place the chiles, garlic, ground coriander, cumin, salt, mint, and cilantro into a blender or food processor. If the mixture is too dry, add a bit of the olive oil. Store in a bowl or jar in the refrigerator with the remaining oil poured in a layer over the top.

  2. Make sure that the surface is covered with a layer of oil each time you use some. When you run out of Harissa you can use the oil to add flavor to fried or baked dishes.

Cook’s Note

I find this green harissa great with lamb chops, chicken, and vegetarian dishes. Especially good in guacamole.
