Cómo hacer Harira

Por qué empezar aquí

Harira is Morocco's breaking-fast soup, poured at sundown in Ramadan and at family tables the rest of the year. Tomatoes, lentils, chickpeas, and a little meat make a bowl that is both humble and ceremonial.

Harira finds its place at the table as the sun dips below the horizon during Ramadan, marking the end of the day's fast with its warm embrace. Yet, its presence is not confined to the holy month. Throughout the year, Moroccan families gather around this comforting soup, making it both a staple of daily life and a cherished tradition. Richly aromatic, Harira swirls with the earthiness of lentils and chickpeas, the tang of tomatoes, and a gentle whisper of spices like cinnamon and ginger. The broth, thickened with a hint of vermicelli, is soothing and fragrant, offering a gentle warmth. During Ramadan, it is lovingly served with dates, hard-boiled eggs, and the sweet crunch of chebakia.
