Cost per serving $0.12 view details
  • 1 sm Onion, minced
  • 2 x Cloves garlic, minced fine
  • 1 Tbsp. Corn oil
  • 1 c. Green split peas, covered with water for 1 hour cooked for 1/2 hour liquid removed and mashed
  • 1/2 tsp Grnd tumeric
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 sm Warm green chili, minced fine
  • 1 c. Water

Directions

  1. Here is a recipe for Injeera and also 2 recipes for sauces from "Sephardic Cooking", Copeland Marks. In Ethiopia the injeera are prepared with teff, a grain of the millet family, but this recipe calls white flour.
  2. 1. Stir-fry the onion and garlic in a dry pan over moderately low heat for 2 min. Add in the oil and stir-fry for 1 minute.
  3. 2. Add in the mashed peas, tumeric, salt and chili; mix well. Add in the water and cook for 3 to 4 min to reduce the mix to a thick, green, well-spiced puree. Serve hot with injeera (see recipe). Variation: If you substitute 1 c. of red Egyptian lentils for the green split peas and follow the same instructions, you will have Misr Allecha.
