ETHIOPIAN FOO
Ethiopian food is one of the most exciting cuisines in the world.
Not only is the food extremely unique and extraordinarily flavourful, but the food culture that makes up Ethiopia is also something I found truly fascinating.
To begin with, Ethiopian food is eaten with friends and family.
How to eat Ethiopian food?
The very first thing you need to know about Ethiopian food is something called injera. Injera is the staple and the most widely consumed starch / filler in all of Ethiopian cuisine; Most Ethiopians eat it injera, twice, or even three times a day. It’s the foundation of Ethiopian food.

What is injera? Injera is made from a grain known as teff, which is ground into flour, made into a batter, slightly fermented, and then fried on a heavy skillet into a giant circular pancake. The texture is soft and spongy and the flavour is lightly sour.
When you go to an Ethiopian restaurant in Ethiopia, you order the dish, or mix of dishes that you’d like, and injera automatically comes with it - you don’t need to order it separately.
Seasonings and Flavours
Ethiopian food is well flavoured with a mixture of different spices and herbs, not extremely spicy in heat, but rather very well seasoned.
The staple injera, mentioned above, is sour, and it goes well with the legume spicy riddled stews
Food in Ethiopia is served on a platter known as a gebeta, a large circular, usually metal platter. First, a circle of injera is placed on the gebeta, then the different stews, curries, or vegetables, that you’ve ordered are placed on top of the injera. From a single dish to a mix of different dishes, everything is piled onto the plate of injera.
Depending on the restaurant, you might also get some extra rolls of injera (like in the photo pictured above) to begin eating with first, or alternatively you can immediately begin tearing off pieces of injera from the edges of the large main piece.
To begin eating, first tear off a bite sized piece of injera with your right hand. Then use it to scoop up, and pick up a bite of your choice of whatever you have on your platter.
As you begin to eat your dishes, you can begin to eat the foundation piece of injera at the bottom, and I think it’s the best part of the meal, because it’s had time to soak up all the wonderful flavours of the dishes.
No utensils are needed, you eat with your hands, while sharing a single platter of food with everyone you eat with.
Eating meals in Ethiopia is absolutely an amazing experience!
Even the way Ethiopian food is served, on a communal platter, is designed for sharing food with each other. Food is not meant to be eaten alone in the culture of Ethiopia. In fact, during my visit, I can’t say I ate off a traditional plate my entire time.
we went in restaurant mesob to eat Ethiopian food and food was really good and delicious and restaurant atmosphere was very good and friendly
I hope you're ready for a delicious street food adventure!
