Here is what the dish ended up looking like.

Alone, the merguez looked like this.

Inspired again by Poli, I tweeked his recipe and mine went like this:
3 lbs Lamb
3 Tbs Hariissa Paste
3 TBS Paprika
2 tsp salt
5.5 tsp dried onion
2 tsp granulated garlic
1 tsp black peppercorns
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp oregano
Harissa Paste
4 oz of dried peppers soaked in hot water then drained
½ cup ground coriander
¼ cup ground cumin
¼ cup garlic
¼ cup salt
½ cup olive oil
Note, brown cumin and coriander seed in frying pan then grind.
