- ½ teaspoon cumin powder
- ½ teaspoon coriander powder

Steps
- To prepare the Berbere, mix all the spices and set aside.
- Time to cook the lentils. Heat a pan (or Instant Pot, or a Stovetop Pressure Cooker). Add oil.
- Once it's hot, add onion and saute for 2 to 3 minutes or until translucent.
- Add ginger and garlic. Stir and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, berbere spice, and salt. Mix well and cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until the tomatoes are wilted and the mixture thickens.
- Now add the lentils, potatoes, and 2 cups of water. Give it a good stir and close the lid.
- For Instant Pot, cook for 15 minutes on High settings. For stovetop pressure cooker, cook until 8 to 10 whistles on medium-high heat. For a normal pan, cook for 20 to 25 minutes on low-medium heat.
- That's it, your Ethiopian Lentil Stew is ready! Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and serve over rice, quinoa, or naan.
Notes
- Reduce this amount to reduce the 'heat'.
