TUNISIAN HARISSA
This is a popular Tunisian condiment. It's a homemade pepper paste that is sure to add an extra kick to just about anything and it is widely used in Tunisian cuisine. I add it to anything I want to spice up; in my home we use this just about everyday.

Store in the refrigerator.

SPICY TUNISIAN CARROT FRITTATA
Tunisian frittatas are sometimes baked in an earthenware dish in the oven, sometimes on top of the stove. This one, adapted from a recipe by Clifford Wright, is made like an Italian frittata, but the spices are unmistakably Tunisian.

Steps:
- Either boil the carrots in salted water, or steam until thoroughly tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash with a fork, or puree in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the caraway, harissa, and garlic, and blend together.
- Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Beat in the salt and pepper, and add the carrot mixture and the parsley. Mix together well. Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a heavy 10-inch nonstick skillet. Hold your hand above it; it should feel hot. Drop a bit of egg into the pan and if it sizzles and cooks at once, the pan is ready. Pour in the egg mixture. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs and filling evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with a spatula, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
- Cover the pan, turn the heat down to low and cook 15 minutes, shaking the pan gently every once in a while, until the frittata is almost set. From time to time remove the lid and loosen the bottom of the omelet with a spatula, tilting the pan, so that the bottom doesn't burn. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler.
- Finish under the broiler for 1 to 3 minutes, watching very carefully to make sure the top doesn't burn (it should brown slightly, and it will puff under the broiler). Remove from the heat, shake the pan to make sure the frittata isn't sticking, and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes and up to 15. Loosen the edges with a wooden or plastic spatula. Carefully slide from the pan onto a large round platter. Serve warm or room temperature.

TUNISIAN CARROTS WITH CARAWAY AND HARISSA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and toss the carrots and the garlic with half of the olive oil in a small roasting pan. Roast in the oven for about 50 minutes, or until the carrots are fork-tender. Remove from the oven.
- While the carrots are roasting, whisk together the lemon juice, remaining olive oil, harissa, caraway seeds, cumin, salt, and sweet paprika.
- After the carrots have cooled slightly, cut them into 1/2-inch rounds and toss them with the dressing. Transfer to a shallow bowl, and sprinkle with cilantro, parsley, or chives.
BAKED TUNISIAN CARROT, POTATO AND TUNA FRITTATA
Tunisians often add tuna to their frittatas. I've tried this one with both tuna packed in olive oil and in water, and find that the tuna packed in water becomes too dry when the omelet bakes.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Steam the potatoes and carrots above 1 inch of boiling water until tender, about 10 minutes.
- Place the oil in a 2-quart baking dish or a 9-inch cast iron skillet. Rub the oil over the sides of the pan, and place in the oven. Meanwhile, whisk the eggs in a large bowl. Whisk in garlic, caraway, salt (about 1/2 teaspoon) and pepper to taste and harissa. Stir in the potatoes, carrots, tuna and parsley. Remove the baking dish from the oven, scrape the egg mixture into the hot baking dish and place in the oven.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes until lightly colored on the top and set. Allow to cool for 10 minutes or longer before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

TAHINI-GLAZED CARROTS
A little sweet from date syrup, creamy from tahini and very tangy from plenty of lemon juice, this roasted carrot dish - adapted from Adeena Sussman's cookbook "Sababa" - has charisma to spare. It's also extremely easy to make. While the carrots roast with olive oil and cumin, all you do is whisk together a simple glaze from pantry ingredients. If you don't have the date syrup on hand, maple syrup works just as well, making the dish slightly sweeter but no less compelling.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Place carrots on a large rimmed baking sheet and toss with the oil, salt and cumin. Roast carrots for 15 minutes, then turn them and continue roasting until they are golden at the edges and tender, 12 to 15 minutes longer.
- While the carrots are roasting, make the tahini glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, tahini, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, silan, cayenne, salt and 1 tablespoon water until smooth. Whisk in 1 to 2 more tablespoons water until you have a thick but pourable sauce. Taste and add more salt or lemon juice, or both, if you like.
- Transfer the carrots to a platter and drizzle with the tahini glaze, tossing the carrots to coat.
