Provided by Olha7397

Categories     Grains

Time 1h30m

Yield 6-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 lb lentils
6 cups water or 6 cups vegetable broth
6 cups mild green chilies, roasted peeled, seeded and chopped* (See note)
2 red onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced (or more)
fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons cumin seeds or 2 teaspoons powdered cumin
1 teaspoon cardamom seeds (shell off husks) or 1 teaspoon cardamom powder
1/2 teaspoon whole allspice (or ground)
1 teaspoon fenugreek seeds (or powder)
1 teaspoon coriander seed (or powder)
8 whole cloves or 8 ground cloves
1 teaspoon black peppercorns or 1 teaspoon freshly ground peppercorn
5 teaspoons red pepper flakes or 5 teaspoons crumbled dried red peppers
1 tablespoon grated fresh gingerroot (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons sweet paprika (can use hot)
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • LENTILS:.
  • Bring lentils and broth to boil and simmer 10 minutes.
  • Add chiles, onion, garlic, and Berebere spices. Cook covered for another 30 minutes, until most of liquid is absorbed.
  • Serve with ground black pepper to taste.
  • For a vegetarian meal, these lentils are good with a dollop of yogurt, brown rice and sliced tomatoes.
  • BEREBERE SPICE MIX:.
  • Toast all the seeds and whole cloves in a small frying pan for 2 minutes, stirring constantly (open window or turn on the stove vent--it can smoke). Grind the spices in a spice grinder. If you are using pre-ground spices, ignore and go on to the next step.
  • Mix all remaining ingredients. Place in a tightly covered container and refrigerate. This mixture can used with many combinations of legumes, rice or vegetables.
  • NOTE: *OR: 1 bell pepper chopped + 14-oz can chopped green chiles.
  • NOTE TWO : There are two ways to make this berebere spice mix - with whole spices that you grind, or with powdered versions of the spices. The first way gives you a more powerful flavor, but it may be more practical the second way, particularly if you don't have a spice grinder.
  • Yield: 6 to 10 servings.

  • Toast all the whole spices in a dry pan over medium heat until they are fragrant. Set them aside.
  • In the same pan, heat the oil and sweat the shallots and garlic over medium heat. Do not let them color. Turn off the heat and set aside.
  • Grind your whole spices in a spice grinder, then mix them with the powdered spices. In a mortar and pestle, add the shallot-garlic mixture and add the ginger. Pound it well for a minute or two. Start adding the spice mixture, pounding and mixing all the way, until you have a clay-like, brick red mix. You now have berbere in its most preservable form.
  • In the fridge, I've kept this for a year with nothing noticeable happening to it. But, this is tough to use. So if you want to use your berbere now, start adding some water, a tablespoon at a time, to thin it out to the consistency you want.
