Ethiopian Spiced Cottage Cheese with Greens (Gomen Kitfo)

"This is an Ethiopian recipe that is slightly altered to better accommodate ingredients commonly available in the US. Use spinach if you prefer; and if you can't find cardamom, just leave it out. I first made this for a school project in junior high."
