Ethiopian Yellow Split Peas Curry By Foodaciously

This Ethiopian yellow split peas curry served with rice and greens is not only a satisfying and hearty dish but also a very nutritious meal.

This recipe is inspired to two world-famous Ethiopian dishes, the Kik Alicha and the Wat. The former is a curry prepared with yellow split peas, onions, and turmeric; the latter is a red split lentil stew simmered in a spicy berbere seasoning.

We combined these two dishes into a mouthwatering Ethiopian Alicha recipe that is vegan, gluten-free, and nut-free. Here at Foodaciously, we want to help everyone enjoy the food they love without compromise.
