Harira soup is a delicious, nourishing, hearty and traditional soup from Morocco that is commonly 
served during Ramadan. It is a made up of a base of onions, celery, tomatoes, lentils, chickpeas and flavoured with spices such as garlic, ginger, cinnamon, and turmeric. It is usually served as part of a larger meal alongside dates, fruit and snacks such as pakoras. The recipe can be adapted to your taste by adjusting the spices. You can also add Rice instead of Vermicelli to the Soup and can use green lentils instead of brown lentils.

Vegetable Pakoras are a popular Indian snack. They are served as a starter or a snack between meals. Vegetable Pakoras are made by adding a variety of vegetables and spices to a batter made of chickpea flour and then deep frying until crispy and golden brown. The vegetables can vary.

They are often served in Ramadan as a side to a main meal and also come in handy to use up leftover vegetables.
