Description

This vegetarian main sacrifices nothing in flavor to cut meat from the meal, utilizing the complex spiciness for Harissa paste.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 pound dried penne pasta (or any other pasta)
  • 2 tbsp harissa paste
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper powder
  • salt – to taste
  • 12 tbsp of pickled capers, drained
  • 1 cup cut cauliflower
  • 2 red bell peppers, deseeded and cut into strips
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 carrot, peeled, cut into thin strips
  • chopped coriander leaves

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together harissa paste, 1/4 cup of olive oil, salt and black pepper powder. Keep aside.
  2. Preheat oven to 180 C or 400 F. On a baking sheet, spread cauliflower florets, bell peppers, carrot strips, chopped tomatoes and corainder leaves. Top with the harissa dressing and toss so that the veggies are evenly coated. Bake for about 25 to 30 mins until they lightly crispy.
  3. Cook pasta in lots of salted boiling water as per package instructions or until al dente.
  4. Heat few tbsp of olive oil in pan and toss together roasted veggies, capers with penne. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. If you want to increase the heat, optionally add little harissa to pasta. Cook for 4 to 5 mins. Serve and garnish with fresh herbs and cheese (if you wish to).

  1. I made this tonight and it was so delicious. First time cooking with harissa! I love spicy with flavor. The cauliflower was so meaty and really sucked up the spices. Great recipe!
