What is Harira? The ultimate Moroccan comfort soup

The taste of tradition Harira is a rich, fragrant Moroccan soup that is world-famous. Although it is traditionally eaten during Ramadan to break the fast, it is also loved throughout the year as a hearty meal soup.

It's warm, nutritious, and incredibly flavorful—the perfect comfort food for rainy days in Antwerp.

What's in our Harira? Our soup is made fresh daily with pure ingredients:

  • Rich tomato base
  • Lentils and chickpeas for the "bite"
  • Fresh celery, cilantro, and parsley
  • A hint of spices such as saffron and pepper

Why is it so popular? It's a flavor explosion that's still gentle on the stomach. The combination of herbs has a warming effect. Chef's tip: Harira tastes best with a piece of warm msemen or chebakia.
