Eritrea (Eritrean Recipes)

World Cuisine Recipes

 
   The native cuisines of Eritrea are very similar to those of neighbouring Djibouti and Ethiopia, though having been colonies of Turkey, Italy and Britain Eritrean cuisine has also assumed aspects of these cultures. Staple foods include cassava, yam, rice, plantain, Potato, maize, beans and millet. Unusually for a coastal nation Eritreans prefer beef and pork and fish consumption is relatively low. The foundation of Eritrean cuisine is injeera and most other foods are cooked in thick sauces before being wrapped in the flatbread to be consumed. Eritreans use a wide variety of spices and it's this more than almost anything else that distinguishes their cuisine.
