Sauce - "Moderately Hot" HARISSA 125ml BlackTop - Ukuva iAfrica

Harissa is built on a base of natural ingredients - it is pure red pepper and spice flavour. It is not exceptionally hot, but definitely not mild either. The flavour base is robust enough to support more burn, if the cook would like to add more chilli...

Use in a tagine with lamb, aubergine and tomatoes - also delicious in a butternut puree served with glazed parsnip and a drizzle of argan oil.

Works exceptionally well with chicken: paint Harissa (mixed with a little olive oil and a chopped fresh chilli if more heat is desired) onto the chicken before cooking. Serve some sauce on the side, with salted lemon and toasted, flaked almonds.

Vegetarian/Vegan Party Piece - Thinly slice scrubbed sweet potatoes, paint with olive oil, arrange in a ring on a baking plate, season and roast (Approx 25 min at 180 C).

In a large pan, saute petal-cut red onion, baby marrow, aubergine and mixed bell peppers. Add 100ml of Harissa Sauce to an equal volume of canned, chopped, peeled tomato, pour over the vegetables; heat through and pile into the ring. Garnish with grated Parmesan (serve grated Parmesan on the side if there are vegans at the table) and a sprinkling of pine nuts (or slivered almonds).
