Harira – Dollar Morocco
Moroccan cuisine is often reduced to couscous and tagines, but it is much more than that. Moroccan cuisine includes many soups, such as harira. Find out more about this Moroccan soup and consider renting a car in Morocco to make the most of your stay.
Moroccan cuisine is quite widespread outside the country, but some dishes are much less well known than others. This is particularly true of Moroccan soups such as harira. Traditionally served at the breaking of the fast (during Ramadan), but eaten all year round, harira is a very popular soup in Morocco.
A tomato-based soup
Originally from Andalusia, harira is a vegetable and meat soup with a tomato sauce base. It is a very hearty soup, served hot.
Harira is made with:
tomatoes, onions, meat (usually lamb), chickpeas, celery, butter, olive oil, flour, turmeric, ginger, parsley, salt, and pepper. Lentils and/or vermicelli are sometimes added.
