Watch how to make Duba WotMethod
- 1
Prep squash: Peel, seed and cut pumpkin/squash into even bite-size pieces.
- 2
Build onion-berbere base: Cook onion in olive oil, add small amounts of water as needed, then add berbere and cook briefly.
- 3
Simmer squash: Coat squash in the spice base, add enough water to come partway up the pieces and cook until tender.
- 4
Finish off heat: Stir in basil and cumin after removing from the heat.
Cook's notes
- Even pieces prevent some cubes dissolving before the rest are tender.
- Let the berbere flavor the oil/onion base before the squash goes in.
- Stir carefully near the end; fully cooked squash breaks easily.
