Harira (Ramadan Soup)
Rich Moroccan soup with lentils, chickpeas, tomatoes, lamb, and warming spices, traditionally served to break the Ramadan fast.
Why It Works
The combination of lentils and chickpeas provides both body and texture. Tedouira (a flour-water slurry) added at the end creates the signature silky consistency.
