> What’s your harissa recipe?
Not actually my recipe, but here it is. Mixed hedgerow berries. I used 1.5 cups rosehips (dog rose), 0.5 cups haws. Top and tail the hips if you can be bothered, then roughly chop. Simmer on a low heat for 30 mins with a cup of water, bashing occasionally with a wooden spoon. Add more water if it's drying out, needs to be fairly loose for sieving. Press the mixture through a sieve to remove skins and stones, try to get as much pulp as possible. Meanwhile roast an onion and 5 garlic cloves with their skins on, a red pepper, and 3 red chilli's. Take the garlic out 1st so it doesn't burn. When the pepper looks charred take the veg out, remove skins and chop.
In a pot, dry fry 1tsp each of cumin, coriander and caraway seeds, and 1/2 tsp of paprika. Add all the other ingredients ,including the berry pulp plus 1tbsp of honey, and if you have any fragrant roses still blooming, add some petals. Simmer for 10 mins, adding a little water if it's needed, you're looking for a thick chutney texture. Season to taste with salt, a squeeze of lemon juice and a wee drop of vinegar, I used my homemade elderberry.
That's it. If you make it, let me know what you think.
