Kocho

Kocho is a traditional flatbread made with enset plant, which is often called false banana, due to visual similarities between the two. The Gurage people of southern Ethiopia chop the plant's thick flesh into a liquid meal, and then shape it into a dough-like mass that gets buried in the ground while wrapped in the plant's large green leaves.

After some time, they dig up the fermented product, shape it into flat loaves or strips, and then cook it on a mitad – a hot plate that is traditionally used to make injera flatbread. Additionally, the dough might be enriched with nitter kibbeh (clarified butter) and various spices.
