Calculation basis

Item weights and household measures are estimated. Unless specified: milk with 1.5% fat, cream with 30% fat and Gouda cheese. Optional ingredients, small amounts of seasoning and separately listed side dishes are excluded. For imprecise entries, the amounts below and comparable reference products are assumed. For alternatives, the first listed ingredient is used. Cooking losses have not been measured.

Calculated estimate using the reference foods below. Substitute products, item weights and consumed fractions are assumptions. Ordinary cooking oil and marinades are counted in full; frying oil, coatings, bones and whole roasts use the stated factors. The higher serving count is used for ranges. Actual product values and cooking losses have not been measured. Varying only the listed quantity assumptions gives 405–475 kcal per unit stated above. This is neither a measured range nor a statistical confidence interval.

  • 3 tbsp berbere
  • 60 g Niter kibbeh or butter

  3. Add the chicken pieces, turn the mixture and add the remaining water. Cover and simmer gently for about 45-60 minutes.

Tips

  • Cook the onion base patiently; it forms the basis of the sauce.
  • Nicolaus says: “First prepare, then the green helper can have a hand.”
  • Food safety: Process raw meat separately from ready-to-eat ingredients. Poultry at least 74 °C in the core; other complete heating after reliable temperature-time control. Cool leftovers quickly in shallow containers and refrigerate.
