Review of Injera Wrap at Merkamo Ethiopian by sianski
It makes me so glad when I see a sign saying 100% vegan. This traditional Ethiopian food is being sold from a stall in Spitalfields Market.
At £7.99 it was a great value lunch and plenty big enough, although there’s a large portion available at £9.99.
I chose the #Injerawrap - sour fermented pancake-like flatbread with a slightly spongy texture, traditionally made of teff flour and I love it. The super grain is filled with complete proteins, fibre, magnesium, iron and calcium The #recyclable cardboard dish was also filled to the brim with goodness- chickpeas, corn, peppers, spinach and a mass of tiny green balls. Is that a kind of quinoa? I accepted the offer of spicy sauce which was the perfect kick to go with the mildness of the chickpea.
Merkamo is one of many food stalls in the market and there are communal tables for standing at to eat and some seated ones so you can enjoy lunch in one place and watch the world pass by,
