Directions
Ethiopian Lentils With Berebere Spice Mix, Recipe includes spice mix if you can’t find it in the supermarkets , This was excellent used roasted sweet peppers in leu of chilies and it was great, not hot at all The flavors were a perfect balance and took me back to Ethiopia Delicious I served it with tikal gomen and basmati I will make this again and again, especially when my garden sweet peppers are abundant , I read the reviews first so I only used 2 tablespoons of the pepper flakes, I could probably do 3 and be just fine Also, I felt like it was missing something so I added a small amount of brown sugar and yams for texture It was wonderful and I will be making this regularly
