Vegetarian Moroccan Harira Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Vegetarian Moroccan Harira Recipe). Harira is a famous Moroccan soup, and here's a hearty vegetarian (and vegan!) version - packed with tomatoes and chickpeas and flavored with paprika, turmeric, saffron, ginger, and harissa. The amount of water can be adjusted depending on the thickness you want. I like this soup pretty thick and nourishing, so I do not add too much water.
