Made this tonight, tasted fantastic, everyone loved it. Didn’t have any harissa so improvised with various spices. Will definitely make again.

Pleasantly surprised at how tasty this was. I added a 1/2 tsp each of ground cumin and ground coriander and used a spicy harissa paste. Also added 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the tahini sauce in place of some of the water. Will make this again.
