Waiting for a cook
Ethiopia
Timatim ("tomatoes" in Amharic) is the sharp, cold tomato salad that sits beside the hot wats on an Ethiopian and Eritrean platter: diced tomato, red onion and green chilli in a dressing of oil, lemon, vinegar, garlic and a little berbere. With torn injera folded through it becomes timatim fitfit, a bread salad eaten with the hands, common at breakfast and during the fasting days when no meat or dairy is eaten.
The draft was written from 2 published sources and holds 10 ingredients and 5 steps. It has never been cooked by anybody at AFN, which is why it is waiting.
