Green harissa

Traditional harissa is a bright red chili paste which has its origins in Tunisia and nowadays is used throughout the North-African cuisine. In a way, harissa can be compared with sambal. We are a bit headstrong and created our own version, which is green instead of red and looks more like pesto than pasta. We add our harissa to various soups, including the Moroccan chickpeas soup.
