Cook the ingredients in a saucepan, add to the amount of flour and water and stir well until it takes a color that tends to yellow, and is served.

The history of Harira dates back to the Andalusian state but is on the throne of Ramadan food. It is served with dates, eggs or Moroccan "shabakia" and in some areas served with hot bread and boiled eggs.
