1 16 oz. Can vegetable broth - $ .55
1/4 cup Diced plum tomatoes - $ .04
1/2 tsp. Saffron - $ .65
1 tsp. Garlic - $ .03
1/4 cup Diced onions - $ .02
1 tbls. Olive oil - $ .04
1 tsp. Toasted, ground fennel seed - $ .03
1 tsp. Toasted, ground coriander - $ .04
2 tsp. Harissa - $ .28
1 tbls. White wine - $ .35
1 tbls. Tomato paste - $ .06
Salt to taste

Begin the sauce by sautéing the onions, garlic and olive oil in a sauté pan until translucent. Add in saffron and stir for one minute, then deglaze with white wine. Deglazing is accomplished by adding wine or liquor to a sauté pan to loosen the cooked-on food particles. Reduce mixture until wine has evaporated. Add tomatoes, fennel, tomato paste, coriander, harissa and vegetable stock, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Harissa is a fiery- hot sauce originating from Tunisia . It is usually made with hot chilies, garlic, cumin, coriander, caraway and olive oil. Harissa can be found in cans and jars in Middle Eastern markets.
