Green harissa butter

Easy Dips and dressings
Makes around 400g

Flavoured butters are a really useful ingredient, ready to be used when time isn’t on your side. Transform roast meats from good to great, toss through vegetables or simply slather on toast with this Green Harissa butter.

Ingredients

1 packet unsalted butter, softened
1 jar Ottolenghi Green Harissa

Method

  1. Beat the butter hard in a mixing bowl to soften it fully. We are looking for an icing-like texture here.
  2. Add the green harissa, beat again until smooth, and decant into a container. Store in the fridge for up to two weeks, until needed.

Note: This freezes really well; simply load it into a zip lock bag, flatten it out, then create deep grooves on the surface using your fingers. Freeze it flat on a tray, then break off cubes when you need it.
