PREPARATION
1.
Put the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring from time to time, until translucent.

Add the garlic, carrots, and celery and continue cooking for another 8 minutes.
3.
Add the harissa, cumin, coriander, and caraway seeds and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring well.
4.
Gently mix the chickpeas into the vegetable mixture--you don't want them to break down--along with most of the salt and plenty of black pepper.

7.
Drain, refresh under cold water, drain again and set aside.
8.
Before serving, add the cooked bulgur to the soup and bring to a gentle simmer. Divide the soup among bowls
9.
