Harira


Preparation time 150 min

Ingredients for 6 liters harira:

  • 160 g thin soup celery
  • 50 g parsley
  • 100 g coriander
  • 1 onion
  • 4 large tomatoes (800 g)
  • 280 g tomato puree
  • 200 g peeled tomatoes or tomato passata
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil from Moroccan Spicy Secrets
  • 48 g Harira Chamalia from Moroccan Spicy Secrets
  • OR
  • 48 g Harira mix from Moroccan Spicy Secrets
  • 500 g beef or veal
  • 80 g brown lentils
  • 400 g precooked chickpeas
  • 100 g vermicelli
  • 210 g wheat flour

Recipe for 6 liters of harira:

  • Take a soup pot.
  • Coarsely chop the onion. Peel the tomatoes and roughly chop them. Add them to the pot.
  • Then add the peeled tomatoes and tomato puree.
  • Chop the celery, parsley, and 50g of cilantro and add them to the pot. Save the remaining 50g of cilantro for later.
  • Add 500 ml of water and 4 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Mix all ingredients well together until smooth.
  • Cut the meat into pieces and place in the pot.
  • Add the 48 g Hariramix or Harira Chamalia from Moroccan Spicy Secrets.
  • Now place the pot with the lid on a medium heat for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, the contents will have become watery.
  • Add the lentils.
  • Add 6 liters of boiling water to the pot. You can easily use a kettle for this.
  • Close the soup pot and let the harira cook over medium heat for 1.5 hours.
  • The cooking time depends on the doneness of the meat. Take a piece of meat from the pot and cut it in half. The meat should be tender and flake easily.
  • Add the chickpeas.
  • In a bowl, mix the flour with 340 ml cold water.
  • Add 250 ml of cold water to the soup. This will prevent the flour from clumping in the next step.
  • While stirring, pour the flour mixture into the pot in parts.
  • Add the vermicelli.
  • Let it simmer for 5 minutes and stir the soup regularly.
  • Finish by chopping the remaining 50g coriander over the whole.

Tips:

**Adding a tablespoon of clarified butter (smen) to the soup is the perfect finishing touch. Do this when adding the herbs.

** Serve with a slice of lemon and dates or figs.

** Traditionally, flour is used to bind harira. Cornstarch is a good alternative. Cornstarch is low in fat, dissolves instantly without forming lumps, and is gluten-free. For this recipe, use 100g of cornstarch express or until the desired thickness is reached.

Tasty!
