Ingredients

7 Dried New Mexico Chiles or Guajillo Chiles
6 oz jarred roasted red peppers (drained rinsed, and dried (2 large peppers))
2 tbsp tomato paste
4 large garlic cloves (peeled)
1 tsp caraway seeds (toasted and ground (use a mortar and pestle, grinder or food processor))
2 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp cayenne pepper
Kosher salt
Juice of 1 large lemon (2 tbsp fresh lemon juice)
2 tbsp quality extra virgin olive oil (more for later)

Steps:

Soak and prepare the dried chiles. Place the dried chiles in a heat-safe bowl and cover with hot water. Set aside for 30 minutes until the chiles are tender and re-hydrated. Drain the chiles and remove the stems and seeds.
Combine chiles with the remaining ingredients. Transfer the chiles to the bowl of a large food processor fitted with a blade. Add the tomato paste, roasted red peppers, garlic, ground caraway seeds, coriander, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne (if using), and a large pinch of kosher salt. Add fresh lemon juice.
Make the harissa paste. Run the food processor, and while it's running, drizzle the extra virgin olive oil from the top opening. Stop the processor to scrape down the sides and run again until you reach the desired paste-like texture. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking (remember that harissa paste will deepen in flavor as it sits in the fridge over the next day or two).
Store. Transfer the harissa paste to a clean mason jar. Cover with a very thin layer of extra virgin olive oil, then cover the jar with its lid tightly and refrigerate.

SIMPLE, DELICIOUS HARISSA PASTE MADE AT HOME

Simple, Delicious Harissa Paste Made at Home image

From Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi's Jerusalem: A Cookbook. I've made a number of small changes to the recipe, so if you'd like to view the original, find it here. Changes include: omit the caraway seed and tomato paste, use a white onion in place of a red (though a red onions will work fine), roast the peppers at 450ºF as opposed to broil. Regarding chilies, I've used both Fresnos, as pictured here, and habaneros. Once when I made this, I seeded the peppers, and the resulting harissa tasted good but there was no heat to it. So now, I leave the hot chilies mostly with their seeds and membranes intact. It's really hard to know how hot the harissa is going to be till the very end because chilies, even of the same variety, vary in their heat level. Tasting one raw beforehand will give you a sense, but it's still hard to know exactly until the harissa is completely puréed. If you find your harissa to be incredibly spicy, you can either just use less of it in your recipes; or you could roast some more bell peppers, peel them, and purée them with your batch of harissa.

Ingredients

2 red bell peppers, halved, cored, and seeded
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
3 tbsp olive oil, plus more to taste
1 onion, coarsely chopped, to yield 1 to 2 cups
3 to 5 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
3 hot red chiles, coarsely chopped, see notes
2 to 4 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt plus more to taste

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450ºF. Place the peppers on sheetpan lined with parchment paper. Roast until nicely charred nearly all around, 20-25 minutes. Transfer peppers to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a cloth bowl cover, and allow to cool. Peel the pepper and discard its skin.
Place a small, dry frying pan over medium heat and toast the coriander and cumin seeds until they begin to darken and smell fragrant. Transfer them to a mortar and use a pestle to grind to a powder.
Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat, and fry the onion, garlic, and chiles for 10 to 12 minutes, until they begin to caramelize.
Use a blender or a food processor to blitz together all of the ingredients until smooth, adding a little more oil if needed. I usually add another tablespoon. Taste. Adjust with more salt, lemon, or oil to taste.
Store in a sterilized jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or even longer.

Set the dried peppers into a large bowl or pot and pour boiling water over them. Let them steep about 20 minutes to soften. Set them into the food processor. NOTE: I prefer to dry toast the dried peppers in a hot skillet a few minutes before rehydrating them to release their oils, though you can make harissa without this step.
Dry roast the caraway seeds, coriander sees and cumin seeds in a pan until they are fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. Cool then grind them up with a mortar and pestle. Into the food processor they go.
