Tomorrow Morocco and many other countries will observe the first day of Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting. I wish all who observe a very blessed and meaningful month!
Moroccans do, of course, have a number of food traditions associated with this holy time, and the soup shown here is one of them. Harira is a fragrant, zesty and nutritious soup of tomatoes, chick peas and lentils. It's an absolute must on many iftar tables, including my own, and it might also be offered at the pre-dawn breakfast which is served before a day of fasting begins. Outside of Ramadan, it can be enjoyed any time of the year.
Be sure to browse my List of Favorite Ramadan Recipes for more ideas of what to serve during this very special month.
