Kicha Fit Fit (Torn Flatbreads With Spiced Butter and Yogurt)

Hawa Hassan
Course Breakfast, Snack
Cuisine East African, Eritrean
Servings 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter or ghee
  • 1 tablespoon Berbere Spice Mix (page 50 in book) or store-bought berbere
  • 1 batch Kicha (Eritrean Flatbreads, page 40 in book), torn into bite-size pieces (about 6 cups)
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup plain yogurt

Instructions
 

  • Place the butter in a large nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Once the butter melts, add the berbere and cook, stirring, until the spices sizzle and smell fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the kicha pieces and sprinkle with the salt. Cook, stirring, until all the pieces of kicha are coated with the spiced butter and warmed through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a serving platter or individual bowls, top with the yogurt, and serve immediately.
