Ethiopian Bula (ቡላ) – Traditional Enset Starch Flour in UAE

Ethiopian Bula (ቡላ) is a premium enset starch flour used to prepare Genfo, the beloved Ethiopian breakfast porridge known for its smooth texture and rich taste. Now available in the UAE, Mekazon brings you authentic Bula 1/2kg so you can enjoy the traditional flavors you grew up with.

What is Bula (ቡላ)?

Bula is made from the enset plant, often called the “false banana,” a staple food in Ethiopia for generations. It is finely processed into a soft, white starch that cooks quickly into a silky, lump-free porridge.

How Ethiopians use Bula

Ethiopian Bula is mainly used for:

• Genfo (ገንፎ) – smooth breakfast porridge served with spiced butter and berbere

• Soft porridge for children and elders

• Light, easy-to-digest traditional meals

Its fine texture makes it different from regular flours, giving Genfo its signature elastic and creamy consistency.

• 100% traditional enset starch

• Finely milled for smooth cooking

Cooking Tip

Mix Bula with hot water while stirring continuously until it thickens into a smooth dough-like porridge. Serve hot with kibe (spiced butter) and berbere for an authentic Ethiopian experience.
