As I noted above, I first tasted this harissa at a potluck several weeks ago. Jodi from What's Cooking Good Looking brought a potato salad dressed in this vibrant sauce, which she had made from Bowl + Spoon, Sara Forte's new cookbook. Notes: Use this recipe as a guide. Use any herb or combination of herbs: mint, cilantro, parsley, thai basil, basil, etc. I use a whole jalapeno, but seed the chili if you are sensitive to heat. I often use vinegar in place of lemon, mostly out of laziness. Recently I have been omitting the cumin, but it does add a nice smokiness if you like that sort of flavor. As for the potatoes, this is the method I learned many years ago while working at Fork. This method only really works with small potatoes such as new or fingerlings. If you are using larger potatoes, boil the potatoes for a few minutes before turning off the heat. Once the potatoes are cool, you can eat the them as they are or you can crisp them up in olive oil with more thyme and rosemary. These potatoes are wonderful to have on hand — delicious cooked as they are, sliced and tossed into salads or as they are prepared here tossed in a spicy, green sauce.
