Berbere Paste

Mix 2 T. Berbere spice with 4 T. water and set aside for 1 hour.  After rehydrating add oil for red chili pepper oil.  Or add 2 T. olive oil, 1 T. raisin vinegar and use as a hearty (and HOT) lamb rub!  Serve the lamb with roasted red peppers, potato, and rice, makes my mouth water just thinking about it!

This spice is used as a condiment in Africa.  The spice originated in Ethiopia but it is good with anything.  The first ingredient is cayenne so it is not for the timid.  These two blends are the spiciest so far!  Good with lamb, beef, chicken, seafood, and vegetables of all sorts.
