Genfo (Amharic: ገንፎ, gänəfo), Ga’at (Tigrinya: ጋዓት, ga'atə), or Marca (Oromiffa: Marqaa) is a stiff porridge-like substance that is normally formed into a round shape with a hole in the middle for the dipping sauce, a mixture of butter and red peppers, or pulses such as sunflower, seed, nut (Carthamus tinctorius) and flax (Linum usitatissimum).[3]
Genfo shares many similarities with the Arab Asida. Genfo is made with barley or wheat flour and to cook it the flour and water are combined and stirred continuously with a wooden spoon. Genfo is presented in a large mound with a hole in the center, filled with a mixture of niter kibbeh and berbere.[4][5] The porridge may be eaten with the hands or with a utensil.[6]
