In Ethiopia, each family has its own secret berbere recipe, handed down from generation to generation. The basic ingredients are often the same but the proportions differ: kororima, garlic, ginger, Passion Berry, chilli pepper mit mita, black cumin, salt or cinnamon. That’s why Berbere is sometimes called the “Ethiopian curry”. This mix is also used to flavour the famous Ethiopian dish “Doro Wat”, a chicken stew served with a mixture of mead, offal, hard boiled eggs and Berbere spices.
