If you’ve ever ordered harira at a Moroccan restaurant before, you know what mean! This soup features a magical combination of flavors that will absolutely delight your tastebuds. After enjoying harira a bunch of times while dining out, I finally started working in the kitchen to create my own version. I love making soup, and in particular have a thing for lentil based soups, as you may have noticed if you’ve tried my traditional lentil soup, Mediterranean red lentil soup, or French lentil soup. Most lentil soups are pretty easy to throw together, but harira tends to be a little more complicated, with most recipes calling for long soak times and quite a bit of prep work. Well, today we’re taking some shortcuts! But I promise, you’ll never be able to tell. This harira is the most delicious you’ll find, and also one of the simplest to make!

Step 6: Your Moroccan harira soup is ready to serve! Ladle it into bowls and serve it with some lemon wedges on the side.
