Dabo Kolo (Crunchy Spice Bites)
Ingredients
2 C. unbleached white flour
2 Tbsp. berbere
1 Tbsp. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 C. light oil
Cooking Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl combine flour, berbere, sugar and salt. Gradually mix in about 2/3 C. of water until a thick paste is formed. Dump the mixture onto a floured board and knead until you have a stiff dough. Make a well in the center of the dough ball and pour in the oil. Fold the dough over the oil and knead for another 5 minutes. Cover the dough with a cloth to keep it moist. Break off chunks to roll into 1/4 round strips. Cut these strips into 1/2 long pieces, preferably using scissors so that the ends will be pinched. Bake on a flat sheet for 20 to 30 minutes until crisp. Stir 2 or 3 times to ensure even browning. When cool, store in an airtight container.
