Ingredients

    1/2 cup flaxseeds
    1/2 cup warm water
    2 tsp. honey
    Salt and Pepper to taste
    1/4 tsp. berbere spice mix (I used a curry spice that included many spices traditionally found in berbere, and it was fantastic).

Directions

Makes 12 servings of 1 Tbsp/serving

Roast the flax seeds in a dry pan over medium- low heat until they start to release their aromas, and turn light brown.
Turn them out into a bowl to allow them to cool.
Once they are cool, grind up the flax seeds in a spice grinder or blender until they are completely pulverized.
Transfer them to a bowl, and then pour in the water, whisking to smoothen the mixture. It will resemble a peanut butter spread.
Season with salt and pepper and some of the berbere to taste.
You can also add a touch of flax seed oil if you fancy.

Makes about 3/4 cup, which you can use as a spread for breads in the morning.

Number of Servings: 12
