Step by Step Method
Step 1
Cook the onions for several minutes until they start to soften and turn translucent.
Step 2
Add the oil. When the oil is hot add the berbere and stir.
Step 3
After a few minutes, add the tomato paste and cook for several more minutes.
Step 4
Add the chopped tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and a bit of salt, and cook on low-medium heat until the tomatoes are thoroughly cooked. Add the water (start with 1/4 cup) and bring to a simmer. It should look like a really thick tomato soup at this point.
Step 5
Add the injera and stir, gently chopping the injera as you mix it in. Continue cooking until the injera has absorbed all of the liquid.
Step 6
Top it off with jalapenos and enjoy!
Note: the water used will depend upon the amount of injera you use. Start with 1/4 cup and use up to 3/4 cup
