Injera nije samo vrsta hleba, nego služi i kao escajg, sa kojim se pokui jelo iz tanjira. Obično se servira sa strane tanjira i tako dodatno upija sokove iz jela. Uobičajeno kad ste pojeli parče i jelo je nestalo.
Injera se pravi od teffa ( i još običnog brašna . Teff je vrsta žitarice veoma sitnog okruglog zrna, koja raste u Etiopiji. Iako je vrlo hranljiv, teff ne sadrži gluten.
Pravi se sa prirodnim tzv divljim kvascem, koji svako lako može napraviti.
Počnete sa recimo 1 šoljom običnog brašna i dodajete 1 šolju vode. Ostavite negde na toplom i tamnom mestu i u sledeća 3 do 4 dana ga dohranjujete uvek dodajući iste količine brašna i vode.
Gotova injera je vazdušasta i pomalo kisela.
Sastojci
1/4 šolje teff brašna
3/4 šolje belog brašna
1 šolja vode
prstohvat soli
ulje
1 šolja divljeg kvasca
Priprema
Sipamo teff brašno u činiju, pa prosejemo belo brašno. Polako usipamo vodu, mešajuči da ne dobijemo grudvice. Ostavimo testo da stoji jedan dan ili noć. Testo će fermentirati i dobiti malo kiselkasti ukus , po kome je injera poznata
Kada je testo spremno, dobro zagrejemo malo ulja u tiganju ,( postoji originalni veoma plitak, skoro ravan tiganj za prženje injere, ali ako ga nemate i običan tiganj če poslužiti).
Sa kutlačom zahvatimo testo pa sipajuči u krug, počevši od centra napravimo testo ( kao kod palačinke).
Kako je pržite , ona će malo narasti. Možete i poklopiti. Treba da bude deblja od crepe a tanja od palačinke
Ne okrećete je više u tiganju. Prva mođda traje 1 minut dok se tiganj ne zagreje, sledeće oko 30 sekundi.

Injera , Ethiopian flat bread
Injera is not only a kind of bread—it’s also an eating utensil.
In Ethiopia and Eritrea, this spongy, sour flatbread is used to scoop up meat and vegetable stews. Injera also lines the tray on which the stews are served, soaking up their juices as the meal progresses. When this edible tablecloth is eaten, the meal is officially over.
Injera is made with teff, a tiny, round grain that flourishes in the highlands of Ethiopia. While teff is very nutritious, it contains practically no gluten. This makes teff ill-suited for making raised bread, however, injera still takes advantage of the special properties of yeast. A short period of fermentation gives it an airy, bubbly texture, and also a slightly sour taste.
Ingredients
1/4 cup teff flour
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup water
• a pinch of salt
• peanut or vegetable oil
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup water
• a pinch of salt
• peanut or vegetable oil
1 cup of wild yeast *
Create
1. Put the teff flour in the bottom of a mixing bowl, and sift in the all-purpose flour.
2. Slowly add the water, stirring to avoid lumps. Add the wild yeast and mix.
3. Put the batter aside for a day to allow it to ferment. In this time, your injera batter will start to bubble and acquire the slight tanginess for which it’s known.
4. Stir in the salt.
5. Heat a nonstick pan or lightly oiled cast-iron skillet until a water
drop dances on the surface. Make sure the surface of the pan is smooth: Otherwise, your injera might fall apart when you try to remove it.
