Garlic4 cloves, crushed
Bay Leaf2
Stock or Broth500 ml
Niter Kibbeh2 tbsp
Berbere1 tsp

Fresh Cilantrohandful, to finish

Instructions

1
Brown the injera deeply in the Niter Kibbeh in a heavy pot — patience here pays off later.
2
Remove it, then let the onion and garlic soften in the drippings with the berbere.
3
Return the injera, add the stock and bay leaves, and bring to the gentlest simmer.
4
Cover and braise low and slow until the injera yields to a spoon, about 45 minutes.
5
Skim the fat, reduce the sauce to a glaze, and serve with something starchy to catch every drop.

Chef's tip

Skim the fat from the surface before the final reduction for a cleaner sauce.
