Hello! I am Linda from the Toronto area. I am happy to be here and learning

more about vegetarian cooking.

 

Here is a recipe from Ethiopia.

 

Tsebhi birsen

 

Ingredients:

 

250 gr. red lentils

1 spoon of sunflower or other vegetable oil

1 large onion, minced

2 spoons

berbere

200 gr tomatoes, peeled and sliced

2 teaspoons tomato paste

1 teaspoons cumin

1/2 teaspoon cardamom

3 cloves garlic, crushed

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Heat the oil in a frying-pan and fry the onion light

golden. Add the berbere and fry for 5 minutes. Add the

sliced skinned tomatoes and simmer 5 minutes.

Add the rest of the ingredients, except the lentils,

salt and pepper and simmer shortly. Add salt, pepper,

lentils and boiling water. Cover the pan and

simmer the mixture on a low fire for 60 minutes. Serve
