When eating Ethiopian food, you get some kind of stew served on top of a large flat injera bread. You're supposed to scoop the stew and eat it with the bread. But what do you do when you are out of bread and have more stew left? Just eat it with your hand?

"Give a man injera and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to make injera and you feed him for a lifetime."

This was my solution with naan/roti at least. I wish I had African food available near me.
