Ingredients

  1. warm water - watch the video to see (for yeast mixture)
  2. sugar - watch the video to see (to activate the yeast, a little bit)
  3. yeast - less than 1 teaspoon (less than one teaspoon)
  4. wheat flour - watch the video to see (amount as needed, to be roasted)
  5. room temperature water - watch the video to see (for the batter, not too warm or cold)
  6. ground rue seeds - watch the video to see (a tiny bit, adjust according to the amount of batter)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the yeast mixture: Add warm water, a little bit of sugar, and less than one teaspoon of yeast into a cup. Stir and cover with a lid. Wait until it activates.
  2. Roast the flour: Roast the wheat flour on low heat using a frying pan, injera stove, or oven. Stir constantly to prevent burning. The flour is ready when its color changes, it starts forming small balls, and it smells cooked.
  3. Make the batter: In a clean container, mix room temperature water with the activated yeast mixture. Add a tiny bit of ground rue seeds for flavor. Adjust the quantity of rue seeds based on the amount of batter.
