MOROCCAN SPICED CHICKPEA SOUP
Chickpeas seem to call out for Moroccan spices, so that's what they get here. I make this soup really chunky and hearty.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until the onions begin to turn translucent; lower heat if browning starts to occur. Add spices and saute a minute or so. Add tomatoes, chickpeas, broth, and sugar. Season with a couple pinches of salt and 10 grinds fresh pepper. Stir well. Chickpeas should be just covered with liquid. If level is shy, add some water so the chickpeas are just covered.
- Bring to a simmer, then lower heat to low and gently simmer for 45 minutes.
- Remove soup from heat. Use a potato masher to mash up some of the chickpeas right in the pot. Stir in the spinach and let heat through until wilted, just a couple minutes.
- Season again, to taste, with salt and pepper.
- Serve soup, drizzled lightly with extra-virgin olive oil, if desired.

MOROCCAN LENTIL AND CHICKPEA SOUP
One of the best vegetable soups I've had in ages! Extremely easy to make and very cheap (leave out the saffron if you don't already have any)! This lemony, peppery soup is traditionally enjoyed at the end of a day of fasting during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. This is a vegetarian version of the thick and aromatic soup. More like a stew. From the 2/2007 issue of Canadian House & Home.

MOROCCAN LAMB, LENTIL, AND CHICKPEA SOUP
I made this for my make-ahead cooking group "The Make-Ahead Mamas'" holiday soup swap. The wonderful traditional Moroccan cinnamon-spice combination is lovely with the ground lamb and sweet potatoes, and the chopped apricots or cranberries add a surprising tart sweetness with every few bites. Whenever I make this recipe, I make a double (or triple!) batch and freeze a few portions.

MOROCCAN SPICED CHICKPEA AND LENTIL SOUP
Nabbed this from a Whole Foods recipe. Very good especially with the chamoula (separate recipe). This is very chunky, if you want a thin soup add more veggie broth, if you want a thicker soup take some of the chickpeas and lentils and puree them in a blender, then add them back into the soup.

MOROCCAN SWEET POTATO AND CHICKPEA SOUP
An easy, velvety soup with complex delicious spice tastes, would make a wonderful start to a dinner party or a great lunch. Got this off the web ages ago and can't remember the name of the site. May need more lemon juice if the potatoes and carrots are really sweet so taste at the end, and I used more spices as I like a deeper flavour.

HASA AL HUMMUS -- MOROCCAN CHICKPEA SOUP
Hasa Al Hummus is a wonderful Moroccan vegetarian soup for a comforting winter warmer. Morocco adores her soups though there are not a million varieties. Many recipes online may taste good though are faux or Moroccan "style" soups. I can guarantee that from me what you get is completely authentic Moroccan fare. I owe this to those interested in Moroccan food/cooking that is authentic. This is a very simple basic soup as most Moroccan foods are. Go to a touristy, especially a fancy one, spot and you will get French food with Moroccan influences; not how we eat every day. We eat Moroccan food perhaps with a French influence or two though never vice versa. My housemaid Nasiha who is approximately 60 taught me this recipe. I say approximately as many in Morocco do not know their birthday. Whip this up like we do and enjoy! In a pinch you can use canned chickpeas. They are acceptable, merely omit the first cooking hour. As an aside, here, hummus is the word for chickpea, not the dip/spread.

Steps:
- In a soup pot combine the chickpeas and water and bring to a rolling boil. Cover, reduce heat to medium and cook 1 hour.
- While the beans are cooking, heat the oil in a skillet and sauté the onions, garlic, and hot pepper (we use a small straight pickled hot pepper from a jar) until they barely take on color; very slightly browned.
- Add the mixture and the remainder of the ingredients to the soup pot and simmer 1 hour or until the chickpeas are soft. You don't want a "bite" to the chickpeas but firm and creamy.
- NB: The preparation time does not include soaking the chickpeas.

MOROCCAN SPICED CHICKPEA OR GARBANZO SOUP
Although my son hates chickpeas the rest of us loves them, so i guess he has to suffer occasionally! This recipe came out of looking for just the right recipe to get the flavors that I was looking for. I discovered that you have to temper yogurt before you add it and there are a couple of methods to do that. One is bringing the yogurt to room temperature and stirring well before adding it to the soup and make sure not to boil it. The other was adding some cornstarch and water to the yogurt before adding it. There are other methods involving eggs, but I'm not too keen on eggs in soup. I haven't tried the tempering yet and the first attempt at making this the yogurt curdled, but we ate it anyway and the flavors were good, so I will make it again and either temper the yogurt or add it at each serving. I also understand that if you reheat the soup it may curdle if you put the yogurt in before heating, so keep that in mind. You can also add celery and carrots, but I wanted to keep it simple and not overpower the other flavors.

Steps:
- Preheat a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and add the onion and celery once the oil starts to shimmer. Cook and stir frequently for about 7-8 minutes. The veggies should just start to brown at this point. (It's nice to sip on a drink during this step.) 3 Bring the heat down to medium and add the garlic and ginger. Cook and stir for about 1 minute or until fragrant. 4 Push the veggies to the perimeter of the pot and add the spice mix to the center. Bloom the spices by mixing over the heat for about 1 minute, then mix the spices into the veggies. 5 Add the cilantro and parsley. Stir and cook for about 1 minute. 6 Add the broth, water, chickpeas, and lentils. Increase the heat to high and stir to combine. Once the mixture starts to simmer, drop the heat to medium low. Partially cover the pot and cook for about 20 minutes until the lentils become tender. 7 Add the tomatoes and orzo. Increase the heat to high again and stir to combine. Once the soup simmers, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, partially covered, for 7 minutes. 8 Mix in the chard and cook partially covered for about 5 more minutes. 9 Transfer the pot away from the heat and add lemon juice, cilantro, and parsley (save a few pinches of herbs to garnish individual bowls). Season with salt and pepper. 10 Top each bowl with some herbs and serve with a lemon wedge on the side. Garnish with harissa if available.

MOROCCAN-STYLE CHICKPEA SOUP
I got this from the February 2005 issue of BBC Good Food and adjusted slightly for our tastes. I'm not sure how authentically Moroccan it is (when we were there we didn't come across any soups like this) but it definitely has those north-African flavours and best of all it is super healthy for you. If you don't have harissa you can use your favourite hot sauce or chili pepper.

MOROCCAN CHICKPEA SOUP
Clipped from the AJC, this recipe is from Cafe Intermezzo in Dunwoody, GA. A hint of cinnamon and cumin gives this simple soup its exotic aroma. Instead of adding the spinach to the pot, Chef Todd Wilczewski likes to add it to each bowl and pour the hot soup over it, just to wilt it. Note: for a slightly thicker base and to help the flavors meld, puree about a third of the soup in a blender and then return it to the soup pot.

MOROCCAN CHICKPEA SOUP
From the cookbook Mediterranean Light by Martha Rose Shulman. Martha compares this soup more closely to an Indian curry unlike its milder European cousin. I sometimes substitute lamb stock for the water which gives the soup even more richness. If you choose to use lamb stock you'll probably want a soothing cup of mint tea later. Harissa is prepared easily and cheaply at home and there are several good recipes for it on this site.
