Harira Soup

Harira Soup by John Spottiswood

This is the traditional soup served at sunset to break the daily fast observed during the 30 days of Ramadan. Recipes vary from family to family throughout Morocco and the rest of North Africa.

The saltiness of the bacon enhances the flavour to a new level. I try to eat broccoli, be it frozen or fresh every week. So versatile It has…
