Ingredients

  • 4tbsp olive oil

  • 1lb shrimp peeled and deveined

  • 1 garlic clove

  • 1tsp Villa Jerada Harissa

  • 1/2 cup parsley and cilantro (chopped)

  • 1 cup of water

  2. Add the garlic. Cool for another minute while stirring.

  3. Add the water and stir to create a thick sauce. Cook another 3-5 minutes until it turns into a thicker saucy texture. If the sauce is too dry, add more water if the sauce is too watery, let it cook longer to reduce or add more tomato paste to get the right consistency.

  4. Once the sauce looks done add the Harissa and cook for another minute.

  6. Toss in the cilantro and parsley and give it a good stir.

  7. Finish it off with a drizzle of olive oil and serve with warm bread.
