Directions
Harira (Moroccan Lentil Soup), Tomato soup with lentils, chickpeas, and vermicelli pasta Perfect for those cold winter days This soup is served everyday during the holy month of Ramadan This is a modified recipe from my mother , Smells wonderful!, easy to make & tastes great! My first time ever trying Moroccan food, i was worried it’d be too spicy seems like the flavors may increase as it sits there I substituted scallions for red pepper, doubled the celery, used only 1/4 tsp black pepper, added a cup of carrots very happy with the results!
