Directions

Make the Harissa paste

Place the dried chili peppers in a cup of hot water to rehydrate for 10-15 minutes.
In the meantime, toast the coriander and cumin seeds in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Using a mortar and pestle, ground them into a fine powder.
Transfer the chili peppers with the roasted peppers, vinegar, tomato paste, honey, garlic, smoked paprika, cumin and coriander and parsley in a blender or food processor and process to get a smooth paste, adding olive oil in a stream. Serve at room temperature.

Slow Cook the beans

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the green beans, onions and the garlic, in a baking pan. Season with salt and add the harissa paste and olive oil. Mix to coat evenly.
Roast for 60 minutes, covering with foil if needed.
Allow to cool and serve at room temperature with an extra dollop of harissa paste on the side.
