Bolognese with Harissa

Mediterranean cooking continues to evolve, drawing inspiration from regions like North Africa, where bold spices and layered sauces are part of everyday cooking.

This bolognese takes the comfort of a classic meat sauce and gives it a deeper, spicier edge with harissa—a North African chile paste made with roasted peppers, garlic, and warming spices.

Harissa adds instant complexity to sauces, skillet meals, and roasted proteins. Here, it transforms a traditional bolognese into something richer, brighter, and a little unexpected.

Serve over pasta for a hearty dinner, or spoon it over spaghetti squash for a lighter option.

⸻

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup chopped shallots
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 cup chopped shiitake mushrooms
• 1 pound ground lamb
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• ½ cup harissa sauce
• ½ cup white wine
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 4 ounces goat cheese

⸻

Directions
1. Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat.
2. Add shallots and garlic; cook until softened and fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.
3. Stir in red pepper flakes and shiitake mushrooms; cook another 2–3 minutes.
4. Add ground lamb, breaking it into small pieces. Cook until browned. Drain excess fat if needed.
5. Stir in black pepper, tomato paste, and harissa. Reduce heat to low and cook for about 10 minutes.
6. Add white wine, lemon zest, and goat cheese. Cook another 3–5 minutes, until the sauce is rich and fully combined.
7. Serve warm over pasta or spaghetti squash.

⸻

Thrive Tips

• Use mild harissa for balanced warmth, or spicy harissa for more heat.
• Spaghetti squash is a great lower-carb alternative to pasta.
• For extra protein, try serving with high-protein pasta like Brami rigatoni.
• A little lemon zest at the end brightens the richness of the lamb and goat cheese.
