ETHIOPIAN-STYLE LENTILS WITH YAMS (OR SWEET POTATOES)



Ethiopian-style Lentils With Yams (or Sweet Potatoes) image

This was adapted from a recipe on vegweb (http://vegweb.com/recipes/beans/3088.shtml), to incorporate more Ethiopian spices and use up a sweet potato I had on hand. It doesn't quite achieve the heights of my favorite Ethiopian restaurant, but it's quick, hearty and pretty tasty. Braver souls can substitute cayenne for some of the paprika

Ethiopian Red Lentil and Sweet Potato Curry image

Injera is served as the "plate" to place a variety of tasty curries. I settled on this red lentil and yam curry which I thought would go nicely on top of the injera. A spice blend of cumin, cinnamon, ginger, paprika and allspice flavor the curry. The sweet potato and lentils went together so well and provided an element of...
