  Yummy, and easy to make. I needed to put more water/stock in than it said. I also used Red Thai paste instead of buying Harissa sauce, but it tasted just as good. I found you can half the receipe or double it as expected

  I've just made this soup after reading all the positive comments and thought it was great. A really unusual taste! Even though I love spicy food, I only added 2 tsp of Harissa Paste as I just had a feeling 3 would have been too much- really glad I listened to my inner self! Also I didn't have fresh parsley, so I just sprinkled a little dried parsley as a garnish...Tasted gorgeous with fresh Parmesan too! ....more of a stew than a soup!

  Nice soup and very filling. I put more cous cous in than the recipe said because 2tbsp didn't sound like much - but I really wish I didn't. The cous cous actually goes quite far. You don't need bread with this soup to be full. 4 stars!

  Love this soup, don't have any harissa so just added few dried chilli flakes. Gorgeous and healthy too!

  Made this for my lunch this week. Very tasty. I added some extra green veg (green beans and broccoli) which has worked really well.

  Truly great! And so simple! I used suggestions from comment above and added a bit of cinnamon. I also added some chilli flakes, tomato sauce and diced and fried some smoked Polish sausage-gave it an incredible taste (no longer vegetarian though). Highly recommended recipe!

  Very very tasty indeed. We used only 2 teaspoons of harissa, which was plenty. Next time I would add a little more stock as this ended up more like a stew and not so much a soup. Anyway, totally delicious and we will definitely be making it again.

  Delicious soup, however, I think 3tbsp of harissa paste would be far too much. I added 2 tbsp and it still has a kick!
