Aleecha
Ingredients
1/2 cup Onion, sliced

10 cl Garlic, sliced thin

2 cup Carrots, sliced thin

1 cup Water

3 tbsp Corn oil

1 tsp Tumeric, ground

1 Fresh hot green peppers halved, to 3 peppers

1 lb Cabbage, coarsely sliced

1 tsp Queman, see note

1 tbsp Tomato paste

1 tsp Salt, to taste

1 lb Potatoes, cut like french fries

Preparation
Aleecha is a mixed vegetable stew. Quemam contains an ingredient not found in the US. I'd substitute dry berebere. In dry pan over moderate low heat, stir fry onion, garlic, and carrots for 2 mins. Add 1/2c of the water and cook 5 mins longer. Add the oil and continue to simmer.



Add the tumeric, chilies, and cabbage. Cover the pan and steam to reduce the bulk for 2 mins. Stir well and add the quemam, tomato paste, salt and the potatoes.



Cover the pan and cook for 5 mins. Add the remaining water and simmer for 5 minutes more to soften the potatoes and thicken the sauce somewhat.



Serve at room temperature with Injeera. File ftp://ftp.idiscover.co.uk/pub/food/mealmaster/recipes/ethiopia.zip
