Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Separate the chard leaves from the stems, finely chop the stems, and coarsely slice the leaves crosswise. Heat the cumin and caraway seeds in a frying pan over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, then let cool. Then grind in a mortar or grinder.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan, add chard stems and onion, and sauté until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add tomato paste, harissa sauce, garlic, and ground spices, stir, and sauté for another 2 minutes. Then add chard leaves, chicken broth, and 1 cup of water, bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add the juice of half a lemon and season with salt.

  3. Combine the yogurt, juice of the remaining lemon, and a pinch of salt in a saucepan. Ladle the chard soup into bowls, add the eggs, top with pita chips, and drizzle with the sauce.
