Harira · Marrakech
Harira is the brick-red Moroccan broth of chickpeas, lentils, tomato, onion and lamb, thickened with tadouira (flour-water slurry), traditionally broken with a date to end the Ramadan fast.
Harira is the canonical iftar (fast-breaking) soup of Ramadan across Morocco, served the moment the sundown call to prayer sounds. The dish is medieval; references appear in the 13th-century Hispano-Maghrebi cookbook Kitab al-Tabikh. Outside Ramadan, harira shifts to the streets: bowls for 10 to 15 MAD at Jemaa el-Fna are year-round Marrakech budget food, especially on cold winter nights.
