Here is my invaluable insight :-)

Hareesa is an Arabic( maybe Turkish(?)) dessert...so your name means sweet?

Was I even close???

BTW br. proudtobemuslim, it is "Harith" which means protector.  In some Arabic slangs, "th" is pronounced as "s" in informal speech.  But good try otherwise :-)

well it may mean the same thing, 'protector'.
Since in some cultures the tha is pronounced as a seen would be prononuced. So maybe harisa's name is in arabic haritha.

just like usmaan = uthmaan, rizwan = ridwan, the usual paki name conversions apply....

isn't it amazing how 3 vastly different dishes could be called hareesa. so far I've heard it describe a hot-chilli tunisian recipe and a meat+rice dish from india(?) and we use the same word for a palestinian/lebanese dessert!!

slm
It depends on how it is pronounced,is it pronounced with a long e,like hareesa,if it is then it is all the past mentioned foods.If it is with a short "i" as it is written,with  the stress on the first sylable "haarisa"then its guard or guardian.

Assalamualaikum Warrahmatullah,
Well we should ask sister Harisa what she would like to be. As sister Mona pointed out three different dishes in three different countries have the same name. I would like to add a few lines to that. Muslim food throughout the world seems to be somewhat similar. When I came to the west for the first time I thought that certain dishes belonged to my country only but then when I met people from Arab world I saw how similar our dishes were. And Harisa I am your brother currently doing research in Germany.
Wassalam,
Riyaz.
