This dessert pairs coffee, quickly brewed in a pressure cooker, with hot pepper, then freezes the mixture. It brings Ethiopian coffee culture together with an unexpected heat and is made for anyone looking for a bold dessert to talk about at celebrations.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Brew the Coffee in a Pressure Cooker

10 min

Put the ground coffee and water in a pressure cooker and close the lid. When it whistles, lower the heat and cook for 5 minutes, then strain.

2

Prepare the Mixture

10 min

Mix the strained coffee with the milk, sugar, and hot pepper. Heat for 10 minutes, until the sugar dissolves.

3

Cool and Freeze

90 min

Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then place it in the freezer. Stir every 30 minutes for the first 2 hours, and freeze for a total of 90 minutes.

4

Serve

5 min

Divide the ice cream among bowls and serve immediately.

Reminder

Add the hot pepper a little at a time, tasting as you go; once there is too much, you cannot take it back. Stir the mixture occasionally as it freezes to prevent ice crystals. Allergen: contains milk and dairy.
