Ambasha RecipeOrigin: Ethiopia Period: Traditional |
IngredientsAmbasha is a tasty, spiced, Ethopian bread that goes well with soup and meat dishes.
1 tbsp active dry yeast 
Ambasha Preparation:Method:Dissolve the yeast in 60ml warm water and allow to stand for 10 minutes. Place in a large bowl and add the coriander, cinnamon, white pepper, fenugreek, salt, oil and the remaining water and stir to mix. Slowly add the flour until a dough begins to form. Tip this dough onto a floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic (don't worry if the dough is slightly sticky, it's meant to be!). Reserve a 3cm piece of the dough. Then, with floured hands spread the dough out on an ungreased pizza pan. Using a sharp knife score the dough in a spoked design (like the spokes of a bicycle wheel) and place the reserved piece of dough in the centre of the 'spokes'. Cover and allow to rise for an hour. Place in an oven pre-heated to 180°C and cook for about an hour, or until golden brown and the base sounds slightly hollow when tapped. Combine all the remaining ingredients in a bowl and whilst the bread is still warm use this to brush the top. |
