This vibrant and creamy Spicy Harissa Tahini Sauce combines the nutty richness of tahini with the fiery kick of harissa, a North African chili paste. It’s a versatile sauce that elevates any dish, whether drizzled over roasted vegetables, used as a zesty dressing for salads, or served as a bold dipping sauce. Bursting with flavor and a hint of garlic, it's a must-have for any spice lover!

Servings: 4

Ingredients

Tahini
1/2 cup
Harissa paste
2 tablespoons
Garlic
2 cloves, minced
Lemon juice
2 tablespoons
Salt
1/2 teaspoon (or to taste)
Water
1/4 cup (adjust as needed)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the tahini, harissa paste, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt.
  2. Using a whisk, blend the ingredients until smooth and well combined.
  3. Gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing continuously until you reach your desired consistency – smooth and pourable but still thick enough to cling to your dishes.
  4. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with more salt or lemon juice if desired.
  5. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to a week in an airtight container. Stir well before using.
