I've been asked several times about the type of food that is eaten in Ethiopia. So I thought I would try my best to explain it. The main and most important part of an Ethiopian meal is the injera. It is a thin crepe like flat bread that the meal is served on. To eat the meal pieces of injera are torn off and used to scoop up mouthfuls. Injera is unique to Ethiopia, from its distinct taste and main ingredient the Teff cereal. Teff is the tiniest cereal and used as a staple food only in Ethiopia.
Another favorite dish is called Doro Wat which is spicy chicken that has been slowly simmered in Berbere sauce.
There are many many other dishes that are made up of many meats, vegetables, and sauces. Hope that helps a little bit.
