In a big deep pan melt butter, then add the following in order: ginger, onion, beef cubes, spices( cinnamon, turmeric, salt, pepper), herbs ( cilantro, celery, saffron). Cook over high heat for 5 minutes
Add the chopped tomato pieces, and continue cooking for 10-15 minutes. Add 9 cups of water, 2 stock cubes, and the lentils. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, partially cover, and simmer for about 1 hour, or until beef is tender and lentils are fluffy.
When ready to serve, add the chickpeas, white beans and noodles and cook for 5 minutes. Finally, with the soup at a steady simmer, stir the lemony eggs into the stock with a long wooden spoon. Continue stirring slowly, to create long egg strands and to thicken the soup. Season to taste.
To serve: Ladle soup into individual bowls. If desired, sprinkle with a little chopped coriander (Cilantro)and serve with lemon wedges.
Serving Suggestions
Harira is the soup Moroccans eat at Iftar in Ramadan. It is traditionally made with lamb , but I used beef instead. It's very delicious
