    It sounds good but I don't know what Harissa is?

    Vegetable stock gives this a bit more heft.

    @ Geoffers Harissa is a spicy paste, comes from North Africa and is used in variety of dishes. You can replace it with maybe red curry paste (gives a different but definitely not a bad taste) or just add chilli.

    Used veg stock instead of water, thought it was tasty but check how hot your harissa is, they vary quite a bit and mine ended up being incredibly spicy.
