Notes

So what’s harissa? Sometimes sold as a powder, more often found as a paste, harissa is Moroccan red pepper condiment. Use your favorite brand or formula. Or use some other red pepper: chipotle flake, aleppo, cayenne, even Louisiana hot sauce. It’s the pairing with the creamy yoghurt and acidic lemon juice that makes the dressing, not the particular hot spice.↩

Suggestions

Might this work with other grilled dishes like hamburgers or kufta burgers of beef or lamb? Definitely.
