Harissa paste is a fiery chilli cooking paste from North Africa that really packs a punch. It's not JUST spicy, but combines sweet + smoky roasted red peppers, and other tasty seasonings to create a flavour explosion. Simmered off with juicy tomatoes + our Queen Chickpeas, this warming stew is on the table in just 20 mins. Serve it up with a cooling, herby yoghurt, and that's dinner. This dish is only as good as it's ingredients - so get your hands on the best beans, harissa + tomatoes you can find.

Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Heat a generous splash of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the baby plum tomatoes and cook for 5–6 minutes until soft, blistered, and slightly charred - shaking the pan often. If it starts to spit, cover with a lid and continue to give it a shake.

Step 2

Reduce the heat to low. Add the half of the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant and just turning golden.

Step 3

Add the chickpeas with their bean stock and stir to combine - the bean stock will also help to deglaze the pan. Simmer until the liquid reduces by half. Stir in the harissa paste and simmer for another 2–3 minutes. Taste before adding salt - the chickpeas and harissa are usually well seasoned.

Step 4

In a bowl, combine all the yoghurt ingredients. Season to taste.

Step 5

Spoon the stew into warm bowls. Top with a generous dollop of herby yoghurt and serve with warmed flatbreads, couscous or grain of choice.
