👨‍🍳 Instruktioner

1
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and salt. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
⏱️ 7 minutes
2
Gradually whisk in the teff flour, a little at a time, to prevent lumps. Once all the flour is added, reduce the heat to low and continue to stir vigorously and continuously with a wooden spoon or whisk. The mixture will start to thicken.
⏱️ 10 minutes
3
Keep stirring and cooking until the porridge is very thick and has a smooth, dough-like consistency. It should pull away from the sides of the pan. This process of cooking out the raw flour taste is crucial and takes about 10-12 minutes.
⏱️ 12 minutes
4
Once the genfo has reached the desired thick consistency, spoon it into a serving bowl. Use the back of your spoon to create a well in the center of the porridge.
⏱️ 1 minute
5
Gently melt the niter kibbeh in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour the melted niter kibbeh into the well you created in the genfo. Sprinkle the berbere spice blend over the butter in the well.
⏱️ 2 minutes
6
Serve immediately. Diners can then mix the spiced butter and berbere into their portion of the genfo as they eat, or the center can be shared.
⏱️ 1 minute
