Kisra

Kisra (also spelled kissra) is a popular thin fermented bread made in Chad, Sudan, South Sudan , Algeria and some parts of Uganda and Kenya. It is made from durra or wheat. There are two different forms of kisra: thin baked sheets, known as kisra rhaheeefa, which is similar to injera; and a porridge known as kisra aseeda or aceda. The latter is usually paired with a meat and vegetable stew, such as mullah. As of 1995, the then-undivided country of Sudan ate an estimated 20000 to 30000 ST of sorghum flour annually in kisra.

Sorghum in Kisra
Traditionally, in Sudanese households, sorghum is used as a base for making Kisra. Sorghum grains are known for having high nutritional value through its minerals and vitamins, which contribute to its anti-inflammatory properties. Two common sorghum varieties are feterita and tabat, which are used to mill fermented flour. This flour is then used in fermented batter that contains starter from fungal or bacterial fermentation.
