Marrakech Express Harira

The combination of chick peas, tomatoes, spices, and pasta will fill your tummy and warm your soul. It might cause you to hum the song “Marakech Express.”

Harira is the national soup of Morocco. Moroccans must be extremely patriotic to have a national soup. Kudos to them. And what an excellent choice! I have a hunch that every time they eat this soup they jump out of their chairs and sing the Moroccan national anthem, because this soup is simply divine. It is one of the heartiest soups we serve. The combination of chick peas, tomatoes, spices, and pasta will fill your tummy and warm your soul. It might cause you to hum the song “Marrakech Express.” Soupermom started dancing around the kitchen singing it after we named this soup. Soupermom does that sometimes, when inspired by really good soup. Maybe you should buy a copy on itunes so you can join Soupermom in her singing. Or, maybe just stick to ordering the soup.

Ingredients (in no particular order): chickpeas, tomato, onion, celery, tumeric, pepper, cinnamon, cilantro, homemade vegetable stock goodness, lentils, whole wheat pasta, canola oil, parsely, salt

    Wow, wow, wow. I didn’t know soup could taste this good. The hint of cinnamon is just perfect. And the chickpeas! Just, wow. I wish I’d ordered a lot more. Soupergirl, you’ve found yourself a new, loyal customer!

  • Ellen says:

    The perfect soup for a cold and nasty night! Adding the fresh lemon, as suggested, gave it just the right zip.

  • Holly says:

    Delicious and very hearty! A bit more cinnamon would have been good, but overall, fantastic. Also LOVE the pita chips. I ate then on the way back from picking up my soup – I just couldn’t wait!

    Oh, yummy. Hearty adn delicious. I decided to be wild and splash in a little lime juice instead of lemon juice, and that gave it a really lovely flavor. I wish I had ordered more as well.

    Since I love hearty soup and chickpeas, I’ll give this a 5. I followed Danielle’s advice and used lime juice instead of lemon and it was excellent! I’m glad I ordered a quart.
