Ethiopia, new experiences


Firstly, Ethiopia’s language, Amharic isn’t on Google translate so no hello or goodbye this post, you’ll just have to imagine it. Eretria’s meals have some similarities to Ethiopia with the two nations side by side. For this country we decided to cook Zilzil Tibs and Injera.

ZilzilTibs, is an extremely spicy dish with berbere and spiced butter, water is essential, well, for me anyway.


Injera, apparently plain flour doesn’t really substitute the Teff flour but hey, I tried. The plain flour sat for 2 days, bubbled and smelt horrible. The mixture was then fried like a pancake but remained much more gooey then it should have.

All in all, it may have been better if I had used the right ingredients and had a bit of Ethiopian cooking experience.
