Ethiopian Berbere Spice Blend
Mmmmm... authentic Ethiopian flavours are some of my favourite at the moment! I've been scooping up quite a lot of spicy pulses with injera at market stalls dotted around London so thought I'd test out making my own plantbased, north African recipes (like these little triangle friends!). Here is my version of berbere ~ the homemade chilli mix that is the soil for Ethiopian stews & legumes & curries. As I like to cook simply sourced nosh, I've used spices that every body can easily gather from their cupboard or local supermarket so it may not be the MOST authentic... but it hopefully does the job!
