Directions
Ethiopian Flat Bread (Injera), Not an authentic recipe as it misses out the Teff flour I made this version as I cannot find Teff anywhere!, Tasted authentic enough for my family For me, I had to wait around fifteen minutes for the texture of my injera to get rid of its initial sticky/gooey/mushy-ness, but after the fifteen minutes it was PERFECT Considering it was My first time making any form of injera I would say it went pretty well My husband and his brother loved it with kitfo, Gomen, and misir wot , It would be pretty difficult to make authentic injera in the U S as it is made with a plant fiber from the false banana tree that has been fermented for 3 months in the ground This plant is used for everything including porridge, bread, meat dishes, etc It is often powdered for use in some dishes It is very slimy and resembles cornstarch when wet I think a sourdough version would come closest : )
