I found that myself and there were no dessert recipes. I am
not doing a sweet coffee which was the only other Ethiopian
dessert idea in the great GOOGLE search.

I know why Ethiopian people look so lean🙂. They do not
succumb to dessert as I do. aloha, Thunder

But there *was* mention of fruit and Dabo Kolo
cookies/crackers for 'desert.' If they don't eat desert,
they don't have many desert recipes. It may not be very
exotic to offer pineapple and mango in Hawaii, but those are
also grown in Ethiopia, as well as citrus of various sorts.

Unfortunately, the recipe isn't on the web site, but Jamie
Oliver made a pretty exotic fruit salad (pineapple, kiwi,
star fruit, mango, passion fruit, papaya, and a couple other
things) 'dressed' with a light sugar syrup in which vanilla
and (bruised) lemongrass had been infused. He made the syrup
with equal parts of water and white sugar, and poured it
over the salad when it was thoroughly cool. He claimed that
this mixture could be stored in the 'fridge for 2-3 days.

That sounds beautiful and so tasty! Was Jamie Oliver's an
Ethiopian dessert? Our group is pretty full of intergrity
vis a vis the authenticate food.

Thank you again. aloha, Thunder smithfarms.comsmithfarms.comOpen ↗

Desert just isn't a part of Ethiopian cuisine. All of the
Ethiopians in my extended family drink freshly ground and
brewed Harar or Yrgacheffe at the end of a traditional
meal. No substituting Kona here, Ethiopians dislike non-
Ethiopian coffees.

Thanks but our group is too laid back to even think coffee
with dinner
<g>. We are authenticate on most everything but we are
mainly farmers who go to bed early (dinner club is
from 5 pm-about 9:30) and then we are all up at 5 the
next morning, so coffee is not our drink of choice no
matter what🙂.

Thank you for your information though!!! We are learning so
much about Ethiopia. aloha, Thunder

Alas, no. It had to do with a dinner for a Mauritian.
However, Ethiopia *does* grow "Avocados, Grapefruit, Guava,
Lemon, Lime, Mangoes, Melons, Oranges, Papayas, Pineapples,
Soft Citrus." bananas, and strawberries. I was struck by how
Hawaiian the list was. If authenticity is required, seems
like a couple of wedges of fruit and those crackers is
what's called for. If only authentic *ingredients*, a combo
with the syrup (lemon peel substituted for lemon grass --
they *do* grow vanilla) would work. If inspiration is
allowed, a scoop of citrus ice and one of coffee ice with
the crackers alongside suggests itself.

I lived there in 1974. Here are a couple from Sandy
Lesberg's The Art of African Cooking, Dell 1971

Pineapple Fritters

1 Pineapple, sliced 2 T sugar 5 oz flour 1 egg, separated
pinch salt
1/2 cup pineapple juice
2/2 cup milk (or beer) 1 T butter oil for frying
powdered sugar

Macerate the sliced pineapple with the sugar for 2 hours.
Mix the flour, egg yolk, salt, pineapple juice, milk (or
beer), and butter into a paste; let this sit for two hours.
Immediately before using, add one stiffly beaten egg white.
Dredge the pineapple slices (well drained) in the thick
paste and place them in hot oil. Fry on both sides, drain on
paper towels. and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serves 8

KISSEL (frozen Orange Dessert)

2 lbs oranges or 4 cups orange juice 14 oz sugar 4 oz
maizena (cornstarch) 2 1/2 cups water

Squeeze the oranges, you will need at least 3 1/2 cups of
juice. Pour the juice into a pot and add the sugar and 2
cups water. Bring to a boil. Dilute the maizena in 1/2 cup
cold water nd stir it into the boiling orange juice. Reduce
heat and cook, stirring with a spatula, until the mixture is
oily and transparent (several minutes). Remove from heat and
cool slightly. Pour into chilled bowl or lightly greased
mold. freeze for 2 to 3 hours. Unmold and serve. Serves 6
