Adjust the amount based on your spice preference.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tomato Paste<\/strong> <strong>(Puree) <\/strong>- Concentrated tomato flavour enhances the richness of the sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Honey<\/strong> - A touch of sweetness balances the heat from the harissa and acidity of the tomato paste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Garlic<\/strong> - Adds a savoury depth that complements the warming spices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cumin, Smoked &amp; Sweet Paprika<\/strong> - A trio of bold spices that give the dish its signature depth and warmth. The smoked paprika enhances the harissa's smoky notes, while the sweet paprika rounds out the flavours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Carrot<\/strong> - Brings a slight sweetness and softens beautifully as it cooks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Yellow Bell Pepper<\/strong> - Adds a pop of colour and a mild sweetness to balance the spices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stock<\/strong> - Keeps everything saucy and helps the flavours meld. Use chicken or vegetable stock for the best results. It's essential to use the correct ratio of stock cubes to water, as not all stock cubes are identical. Using too few can lead to a bland, watery broth, while too many may create a stock that's overly salty.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chickpeas<\/strong> - A protein-packed addition that makes the dish extra hearty and satisfying.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Salt &amp; Pepper<\/strong> - These basic yet essential flavour enhancers are key for elevating the taste of your dishes. No food will ever be bland when these are used to season to taste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Coriander (to serve)<\/strong> - Adds a fresh, vibrant contrast to the rich, spiced sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lemon<\/strong> - Fresh lemon slices add a burst of acidity and brightness to the dish, cutting through the richness of the pork and enhancing the overall flavour. A squeeze of lemon just before serving can really elevate the dish, bringing a refreshing contrast to the warm spices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you've gathered all the ingredients and prepared them accordingly, you're all set to create this easy and delightful recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>See the recipe card for specific quantities and instructions.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Variations and Substitutes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This slow cooker harissa ground pork is easy to customise with different ingredients while keeping the rich, spiced flavours intact. Here are some simple swaps to suit your preferences or what you have on hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Different Meats<\/strong> - This dish works well with ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option, while still keeping the flavours balanced. You can also use diced pork or chicken pieces instead of ground meat, but the cooking time may need adjusting (this hasn't been tested).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sweetener Options<\/strong> - Maple syrup can be used instead of honey for a similar touch of sweetness. If you prefer a sugar-free option, a granulated or liquid sweetener can be used, but it won't give the same glossy finish to the sauce that comes from caramelisation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vegetable Swaps<\/strong> - You can switch out the carrot for sweet potato or butternut squash, both of which will soften beautifully in the sauce. Different coloured bell peppers work just as well if you don't have yellow.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spice Level<\/strong> - Adjust the harissa to your preference; if you like more heat, add a little extra or stir in a pinch of chilli flakes. If you prefer a milder dish, use a smaller amount or opt for a milder harissa paste.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skipping the Olive Oil<\/strong> - If you'd prefer to skip the olive oil, you can use a low-calorie spray, but it won't deliver the same richness or depth of flavour. Olive oil plays a key role in saut\u00e9ing the onions and spices, creating a luscious, well-rounded base for the sauce while keeping the pork moist. Keep in mind that a small amount of olive oil, divided into four servings, adds only a modest amount of calories, and it's well worth it for the enhanced flavour and overall results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a few simple tweaks, you can easily make this dish your own while keeping its bold and satisfying flavours.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"Let your slow cooker do the work with this flavour-packed Harissa Ground Pork, where savoury pork simmers with chickpeas, sweet carrots, and peppers in a rich, spiced sauce.

Look for one with <strong>both low and high settings<\/strong> so you can adjust the cooking time to fit your schedule. A <strong>sear and saut\u00e9 function<\/strong> is a bonus, allowing you to brown ingredients directly in the pot, but if your slow cooker doesn't have this feature, simply brown the ground pork with the onions and seasonings in a frying pan first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A <strong>keep-warm function<\/strong> is useful for holding the perfect serving temperature until you're ready to eat, while a <strong>removable, dishwasher-safe insert<\/strong> makes cleanup much easier. For this recipe, I like to use my  crockpot slow cooker for this recipe, but any standard slow cooker will work well.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sides for Harissa Ground Pork<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bold, spiced flavours of this dish pair beautifully with fresh, zesty, and creamy elements. A sprinkle of <strong>fresh coriander<\/strong> adds brightness, while <strong>lemon slices<\/strong> bring a hint of acidity that cuts through the richness. A <strong>dollop of Greek yoghurt or sour cream<\/strong> is a great way to balance the warmth of the harissa with a cool, creamy contrast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For something hearty, serve this dish over <strong>cooked rice<\/strong> or <strong>roasted potatoes<\/strong>, which soak up the delicious sauce. I also love pairing it with a simple <strong>garlic orzo<\/strong>, which adds a buttery, fragrant base to complement the flavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Garlic Orzo Recipe<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For an easy side, saut\u00e9 <strong>1 cup of dry orzo<\/strong> in <strong>2 teaspoons of butter<\/strong> with <strong>1 minced garlic clove<\/strong> just until fragrant. Add <strong>2 cups of stock<\/strong>, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until the liquid is absorbed and the orzo is tender. Stir through <strong>chopped fresh parsley<\/strong>, then serve alongside the harissa ground pork for a deliciously simple pairing.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-pin-description=\"Let your slow cooker do the work with this flavour-packed Harissa Ground Pork, where savoury pork simmers with chickpeas, sweet carrots, and peppers in a rich, spiced sauce.
