Last one for the night! Angeline made this while I worked on the other things. This is basic palak panir, except we used niter kibbeh for the sauteeing part. We had a bit for dinner after we finished cooking, with some leftovers and a well-earned bottle of Samuel Smith's apple cider. Mmmmmm....

Miser Allecha
This is basically just spiced lentils and onion. Also from Papa Tofu.
I bought some injera at the ethiopian market to serve with these things. I'm really looking forward to it!

Gomen
Gomen, pretty much just as it is in Papa Tofu except I used the beet greens and kale that I had available rather than buying collards for it. We're having a 4th of July shindig tomorrow and Angeline suggested ethiopian food, so I took it as a challenge.
This and the next two dishes use generous amounts of niter kibbeh (spiced margarine), also from Papa Tofu. No photo of that but you can take my word for it.

Mei quin choy, shiitake mushrooms, young onions
This was inspired by a recipe in veganomicon, baby bok choy with sauteed shallots and sesame seeds. Except, I used none of those things. I used mei quin choy (there's still a bunch left...), shiitake mushrooms, and chopped "young onions," which are somewhat shallot-like in taste. Oh, and a ton of ginger. Sauteed everything but the mei quin choy for a while first, then added the MQC, a bit of soy sauce, and some apple juice. Covered to steam for a bit and then served with, you guessed it, wasabi mashed potatoes!
Mango, heirloom tomato, and fresh herb salad
Pretty much as it says. The herbs were just basil and mint.
Grated beet and zucchini salad
With a bit of soy sauce, and served atop leftover wasabi mashed potatoes. The beets were from our CSA box and the zucchini was from the garden!
