Is it okay if I say no to Ethiopian food? Will my host be upset?

YES. Most likely . If you are a guest in an Ethiopian family, it would be rude to say no to Ethiopian food or drink. You don’t have to eat or drink up very thing they offer you but you should at least try. Of course , Ethiopian food is really delicious .

How to prepare Sambusa at home

Filling

1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
1 lb lean ground lamb or 1 lb beef
1/2 teaspoon ginger, minced
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
salt

3 sprigs mint, chopped
2 cups water

Directions :

Combine all filling ingredients in heavy sauce pan.
Bring to a boil and stir to keep smooth.
Reduce heat to medium and let mixture simmer uncovered.
Correct flavor for spices and salt balance.
As water simmers away, stir often to prevent mixture from sticking, especially during final stages.
Cook until all liquid evaporates.
If ground meat has a lot of fat, drain off at this point.
Let mixture cool slightly before stuffing.
Fill samosa/wonton wrappers with 1 to 2 tsp of filling. Moisten and press the edges together in a triangle shape.
Fry the Sambusas, several at a time, until golden brown on both sides. Place the golden brown Sambusas on paper towel to rid of excess oil. Serve hot or cold with or without chutney.
