🇪🇹 Ethiopia recipe
Azifa
Azifa is a bright, refreshing Ethiopian green lentil salad served cold, making it a welcome contrast to the hot stews on a traditional platter. Dressed simply with mustard, lime, and green chilies, this protein-rich salad is a staple of fasting days and demonstrates that Ethiopian cuisine extends far beyond its famous spicy stews.
