fah-fah soup

Fah-fah is a meat-and-vegetable soup associated with Djibouti. Goat is commonly used, with lamb or beef as alternatives. Potatoes, cabbage or kale, leeks, onions and tomatoes form a substantial vegetable mixture; green chilli, black pepper, garlic and coriander season the broth.[1]

The meat and vegetables simmer gently in water, with garlic and coriander added as cooking continues. The broth and softened ingredients are served together in a bowl with canjeero flatbread.[1]
