Yield: 4 cups

2 c Unbleached white flour 1 1/2 ts Salt
2 tb Berbere 1/4 c Light oil
1 tb Sugar

Preheat oven to 350F. In a bowl combine flour, berbere, sugar & salt.
Gradually mix in about 2/3 c of water until a thick paste is formed.
Dump the mixture onto a floured board & knead until you have a stiff
dough. Make a well in the centre of the dough ball & pour in the oil.
Fold the dough over the oil & knead for another 5 minutes.

Cover the dough with a cloth to keep it moist. Break off chunks to
roll into 1/4" round strips. Cut these strips into 1/2" long pieces,
preferably using scissors so that the ends wil lbe pinche. Bake on a
flat sheet for 20 to 30 minutes until crisp. Stir 2 or 3 times to
ensure even browning. When cool, store in an airtight container.
