Ingredients
- 198.1 g Ground Turkey, raw
- 61.5 g Cereals, oats, dry
- 153.8 g Spinach, raw
- 13.1 g Honey (for sweetening/glaze)
Method
- 01In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground turkey until deeply caramelized and fragrant, breaking it into small bits. Season with a traditional blend of ground cardamom, cinnamon, and ginger.
- 02Add the raw spinach to the skillet and sauté briefly just until the leaves have collapsed and turned bright green. Remove from heat immediately to maintain texture.
- 03Prepare a quick 'Ambasha-style' oat flatbread by mixing the oats with a small amount of water to form a thick dough, pressing it onto a hot, dry skillet until it forms a crisp, toasted crust on both sides.
- 04To serve, spread the warm, earthy turkey and spinach mixture over the toasted oat flatbread. Drizzle the dish with the honey to provide the subtle sweetness characteristic of festive Borena bread presentations.
- 05The final plate should feature the deeply browned turkey contrasting against the vibrant, tender spinach, all atop the golden, nutty crust of the oat bread.
