Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 1 1/2 cups Brown Teff Flour
  • 1/2 cups All-Purpose Wheat Flour
  • 2 1/2 cups Lukewarm Water
  • 1/2 teaspoon Active Dry Yeast
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder(optional)
  • 1/4 cups Boiling Water
  • 1 teaspoon Vegetable Oil(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large glass bowl, whisk together the teff flour, wheat flour, and yeast.

  2. 2

    Gradually add the lukewarm water, stirring constantly until a smooth, thin batter forms.

  3. 3

    Cover the bowl with a clean cloth and let it ferment at room temperature for 2 to 3 days until bubbles form and it smells slightly sour.

  4. 4

    After fermentation, discard any liquid that has risen to the top, then stir in the salt and baking powder.

  5. 5

    Take 1/4 cup of the fermented batter and mix it with 1/4 cup boiling water to create a 'absit' paste, then stir this back into the main batter to improve elasticity.

  6. 6

    Heat a non-stick skillet or traditional mitad over medium-high heat and lightly wipe with an oiled paper towel.

  7. 7

    Pour the batter in a circular motion starting from the outside moving inward to cover the pan surface.

  8. 8

    Cover with a lid immediately and cook for about 2 minutes until the 'eyes' (holes) form and the edges lift easily; do not flip.
