What’s On At The SUPERSPAR – Weekend Price Cuts and how to prepare Barley, Beef and Harissaa

by | Mar 16, 2023 | SPAR, St Francis

Calamari TOPS Wine Festival

As the days start getting a tiny bit shorter and the warmth of the summer sun starts to slowly recede, it’s time to start looking at warmth and comfort foods, like the following SPAR-inspired recipe. For those that are curious (I was ) Harissa is a hot chilli pepper paste, native to the Maghreb. The main ingredients are roasted red peppers, Baklouti peppers, spices and herbs such as garlic paste, caraway seeds, coriander seeds, cumin and olive oil to carry the oil-soluble flavours
