fit-fit
Fit-fit or fir-fir ( fətfət; ፍርፍር fərfər), (Oromo: chechebsaa), is Ethiopian food typically served as breakfast. It is generally made with shredded Ethiopian flat bread (injera or kitcha), spiced clarified butter (niter kibbeh), and a hot spice blend called berbere. Fit-fit is served by preparing a sauce from the butter and spices, and blending it with the shredded flatbread. There are two main varieties of fit-fit depending on the type of flatbread being used: the sourdough injera and the unleavened kitcha.

==Injera fit-fit== Injera fit-fit (enjera fetfet; also taita fit-fit in Tigrinya) is a combination of shredded injera, berbere, onions, and clarified butter. Variations on this basic recipe are common in which the name of the additional item is commonly used as a prefix (e.g. injera with shiro is called shiro fit-fit).
