Method
  1. Take the teff flour in a mixing bowl & sift in the all-purpose flour.
  2. Add salt & water & mix to a batter, avoiding lumps.
  3. Add the yeast & mix lightly yet evenly - don't over-mix.
  4. Heat a smooth-surfaced nonstick pan or lightly oiled cast-iron skillet.
  5. Coat the pan with a thin layer of batter.
  6. Injera should be thicker than a crepe, but not as thick as a traditional pancake.
  7. It will rise slightly when it heats.
  8. Cook until holes appear on the surface of the bread.
  9. Once the surface is dry, remove the bread from the pan and let it cool.
  10. Injera is used as a utensil on which the entree (a stew/gravy/lentils/veggies) is served with no utensils so pieces of injera are torn with the right hand & used to scoop the entrees placed directly onto it like rotis/naans used by Indians.
  11. Extra injeras are served as rolls on the side as shown in the picture.
