I substituted berbere for various spices i had after looking up the blend. came out a little sweet with all those traditionally sweet spices like cinnamon and nutmeg and no ground chili equivalent, but it was still delicious.

I have made this recipe many times. So good and satisfying never miss the meat!

Fabulous! Left out the pepper because it was spicy enough with the other spices. I added carrots and cauliflower for more veggies. Then topped it with Greek yogurt and cilantro!

One of my favorites when I don't want meat!!

Used a bit less pepper so everyone could enjoy. It’s become a favourite.

Love it. Great combination of spices and just the right heat (enough to make you nose run but not singe your tongue). I added chicken because my husband feels deprived if there’s no meat in something.

Lots of flavor. Filling and delicious. Ate it with a bit of yogurt on the side.

I’ve made it 4 times now. I love it! I’ve shared the recipe with several other people, and they’ve all liked it as well. Some put a little less Berbere spice myself, I like it. It will be a much used recipe

This is amazing! Since we’re sheltering in place desperate times call for desperate measures and I used what I had on hand. Subbed brown lentils for red, red onion for yellow and frozen spinach for fresh. I added carrots as others did and used the full amount of spice. Cooked it an hour since brown lentils take longer. Very, very yummy with some sriracha squeezed on top. Good thing hubby doesn’t care for lentils - I get this all for myself!

This was delicious, so flavorful! I used 2tbs of berbere, but omitted the cayenne, because it was perfect amount of heat with the 2 tablespoons! I saw someone recommended cauliflower so I added it too! It is perfect. Don’t even miss the meat! This is gonna be a staple recipe!

OMG! This is so good! I made it with the turmeric basmati rice. This is my new favorite vegan meal. I used full amount of Berbere and half of the cayenne.

I absolutely love this dish. It never fails me. I do change it up once in awhile and it still turns out great.

Really nice but I thought it needed a little something extra so added some peanut butter

Absolutely wonderful! We love spicy dishes. So thick and nourishing. Everyone wants me to make again, which is so easy!

Excellent!! Goes wonderfully with the turmeric rice recipe in the blog (which was a bit on the sticky side; I’ll use less water next time). The Berber spice blend recipe also amazing even without the fenigruk seeds. I diced the potatoes into slightly smaller pieces than in the photos. 30 minutes cook time was spot on.

This was delicious! Couldn’t make it as spicy as it calls for, but was great all the same. Definitely a keeper!
