^^anjeera is both cuisines for ethiopia and somalis. but they have little bit difference the stew used and the way served. for example somalis from different part of horn have different anjeera with little difference. NEP we use both anjeera kenya and anjeera somalia. northern somalis (somaliland) cook laxoox and until you reach djibouti. i normally go somali restaurants in KL when miss home and eat like a dog:lol::lol: we have quite good number of them in Malaysia:cheers:
