Harissa Sauce


The following is my wife's recipe for Harissa (very simple to make, she says):

Grind with mortar and pestle:
2 1/2   TBSP    Cayenne pepper
1       TBSP    Cumin
3 or 4          cloves of garlic (depending on size)
1/2     tsp     salt

then add:
1       cup     olive oil

Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.  Store in a glass jar in the
refrigerator.  It lasts for a long time... unless you use it up quickly.
