Ramadan recipe: Harira
Harira is a very popular Moroccan soup, mixing chickpeas, lentils, lamb and celery with spices as turmeric, cinnamon, and saffron. Traditionally, it is eaten to break the fast in Morocco during Ramadan, as the soup is gentle for the empty stomach and full of important vitamins.

Mix the peeled tomatoes and tomato paste to a sauce and pour into the mixture. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Pour in 1.5 liter beef stock, the lentils and chickpeas, and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer, covered, for 2 hours until the chickpeas are tender. Add, from time to time, a little more water if necessary.
