- To make the harissa:
- Crush chiles, including seeds, into fine paste. Add garlic, cumin, salt, and 2 tbsp of olive oil. Continue to crush until paste forms. Work in additional olive oil, set aside.
- To prepare vegetables:
- In a deep, heavy frying pan, combine butter and olive oil. When butter foams, add onions and garlic, saute until translucent. Stir in chiles, tumeric, cumin, thyme, salt, pepper, and saffron. Add remaining vegetables and saute for a minute or two. Add stock and stir for two minutes. Cover tightly, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes until potatoes are tender. Add peas, cover, and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat and keep covered.
- To prepare couscous:
- In a large bowl, combine boiling water, couscous, butter, and salt. Let stand until the water is absorbed, about ten minutes. Turn into a fine mesh sieve and gently press with a wooden spoon to remove excess water. Transfer to bowl and fluff with fork.
- To serve:
- Add 1 or 2 tbsp of vegetable broth to the harissa and stir. Mix a few vegetables and a bit of the broth into the couscous. Sprinkle with herbs. Serve with the vegetables on the side and harissa.
