🇪🇹 Ethiopia recipe
Fatira
Fatira is a flaky, layered Ethiopian flatbread enriched with eggs and often finished with a drizzle of honey, creating a delightful sweet-savory breakfast pastry. The dough is stretched paper-thin, folded multiple times to create layers, then pan-fried until golden and crispy. It bridges the line between bread and pastry in Ethiopian cuisine.
