    My husband was from Ethiopia and I was taught how to make Doro Wat over 40-years ago by my sister-in-law and several family friends. Yes, sometimes there would be 8 or 10 women in my kitchen dicing onions and cutting up chicken and cooking injera. We always had a house FULL of people; especially when someone would bring 'the spice' back from Ethiopia. I have watched several videos of others making this stew and this is by far the best! I love how she stressed the importance of cooking the onions properly to a deep brown, and that making Doro Wat IS a long process that cannot be accomplished in 30-minutes! Even the injera can take 4-5 days to make because of the fermentation time. So, if you want injera with your dish, think ahead! My mouth is watering right now and I do believe I am going to make a big pot full of Doro Wat today. I absolutely LOVE this stuff!

    I had a female coworker who was from Ethiopia and we worked long hours as caretakers. After a while she found out that i am an Orthodox Christian like her, alhough she belongs to to the Ethiopian tewahedo church and i to the Serbian orthodox, the similarities are bigger than the differences. She was so happy to meet a person in Sweden, who wasnt Ethiopian and also Orthodox. And from that day we always celebrate Pascha, The Nativity, and other big feasts after fasting, together with our families. Doro Wat and Kitfo has become my absolute favorite dishes out of everything Ive ever tried in my life after being literally fed by her hundreds of times at work, and at festivities. This is also the only clip showing how to make Doro Wat, that she approves and considers authentic😄

    I only ever ate doro wat in my home country, in east africa, my neighbours would make it on occasion and i would just invite myself (in my defence, i was a child) and inhale several plates of the stuff. When i didn’t come by myself, their eldest daughter would bring it for me and those are honestly some of my fondest memories.

      They're not exactly the ingredients, they're just common things in Ethiopian food. Injera is the bread, berbere is the main spice, mitmita is another spice that's hotter than berbera and generally not used in dorho wat from what I know (you probably could use it but I haven't seen anyone use it), and shiro is a completely different food (it's like a lentil powder that becomes another stew that you eat with injera as well)

    I've never had "authentic" Doro Wat, but discovered a video recipe several years back and have made it many times since. It is so good when I make it, I can only imagine how good it would be from an actual Ethiopian restaurant or cooked by someone from Ethiopia. You will have to tend to the onions pretty frequently, and the smell of those onions cooking will be throughout your house for the day, but it's more than worth it. By no means am I the authority on Doro Wat, but I can tell Ms. Eden's is fire! Looks so good!

      BEFORE YOU BEGIN WITH THE BLAH, BLAH, BLAH OF THE PROGRAMMING THAT THEY HAVE PUT INTO US ALL, I ASK YOU A SIMPLE QUESTION FOR YOUR REASONS:
      IF A THIEF STEALS YOUR PASSPORT, AND IN YOUR NAME COMMITS THE BIGGEST SCAM, DOES IT MEAN THAT YOU ARE A SCAMMER???
      PLEASE ENTER THE ARK. ASK HIM TO ENTER YOUR HEART AND FILL YOU WITH GRACE TO KNOW HIS TRUTH IN THE GOSPELS, START READING JOHN AND ROMANS, BUT FIRST DECLARE:

      “Lord Jesus, with my mouth I declare that you alone are my Lord and Savior. Become the Lord of my life, I give myself completely to you beloved Messiah, change my heart of stone for one of flesh and reveal yourself to me, please, I want to meet you and be reborn.

      I not only want to believe that you died on that cross for my sins and rose on the third day, but I want to prove it so that you open my spiritual eyes and let me know that you are ALIVE and that you are no longer. what they want to show us lifeless on that cross. PLEASE GIVE ME A PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH YOU AND MAY THE PROMISE OF ISAIAH 30:22 BE FULFILLED IN ME. Amen and amen"

      @Randy - Not sure of the religious aspect, but myself being from Ethiopia, I know there's even a saying that a girl who can't cook the twelve parts of a chicken (ዶሮ = Dorò) doesn't qualify to be a good wife. Yes indeed it gets too cold in the winter and Dorò was my favourite holiday dish. I can't get it here. For instance today is the (መስቀል = Mäsqäl) holiday. I'm glad I found it on this day.

      Every region has its peculiarities. My region of Vidarbha has its own fascination with spices and chillies. We have chillies in our ice-cream, teas, paan, milkshakes, curries, pickles, preserves.
      Plus some spices that are just native to us and some cooling methods too.

      *WAKE UP! DO NOT BELIEVE IN MEN, YOU HAVE TO KNOW HIM WITHOUT INTERMEDIARIES, CONFESS YOUR SINS TO HIM. (JEREMIAH 17:5) *
      JESUS ​​HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH *ANY RELIGION* (THIS INCLUDES THE RELIGION OF THE ANTICHRIST, WITH THE NEW AGE DEMONS), HE WANTS A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU AND OBEDIENCE. YOU CAN FIND IT IN HIS WORD WHICH IS THE BIBLE, NOT IN ANY BOOK MADE BY MEN WHO HAVE NOT BEEN DIRECTED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, NOR THROUGH MEN WHO DO NOT KNOW HIM.
      BEFORE YOU BEGIN WITH THE BLAH, BLAH, BLAH OF THE PROGRAMMING THAT THEY HAVE PUT INTO US ALL, I ASK YOU A SIMPLE QUESTION FOR YOUR REASONS:
      IF A THIEF STEALS YOUR PASSPORT, AND IN YOUR NAME COMMITS THE BIGGEST SCAM, DOES IT MEAN THAT YOU ARE A SCAMMER???
      PLEASE ENTER THE ARK. ASK HIM TO ENTER YOUR HEART AND FILL YOU WITH GRACE TO KNOW HIS TRUTH IN THE GOSPELS, START READING JOHN AND ROMANS, BUT FIRST DECLARE:

      “Lord Jesus, with my mouth I declare that you alone are my Lord and Savior. Become the Lord of my life, I give myself completely to you beloved Messiah, change my heart of stone for one of flesh and reveal yourself to me, please, I want to meet you and be reborn.

      I not only want to believe that you died on that cross for my sins and rose on the third day, but I want to prove it so that you open my spiritual eyes and let me know that you are ALIVE and that you are no longer. what they want to show us lifeless on that cross. PLEASE GIVE ME A PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH YOU AND MAY THE PROMISE OF ISAIAH 30:22 BE FULFILLED IN ME. Amen and amen"

      Now look for God in the Bible in John and the Romans, do not stop doing it, tremendous judgments are coming for apostasy AND IDOLATRY.

      MATEUS 14 - 15 And whoever does not receive you or listen to your words, when leaving that house or that city, shake the dust from your feet. Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that city.

    Absolutely love this dish. but the more authentic BERBERE spice mix contains up to 20 spices (sometimes more) with absolutely essential endemic wild spices called KORERIMA (cardamom grains of paradise OR false cardamom) another spice called BESOBELA (Ethiopian holy basil) in the BERBERE mix and KOSERET in the KIBBE(clarified spiced butter) that really changes the taste and profile of the dish really adding greatly to the umami, sweetness and spice.

    What a great recipe! This was delicious and tasted so very authentic! One of the best things about this recipes is that unlike every other recipe I've seen for Doro Wat, the onions are not fried in a large amount of oil; in fact now oil is used to caramelize the onions. All that oil makes the dish oily and produces an unsightly oil slick on the top of the stew. Frying the onions in oil makes carmaizing much quicker, but without the glob of oil this tasted fresher and healthier.

      What the difference between this and curry aside from a lack of carrots? Is it a texture thing?

      @@awilli182 The ratio of the spices is different although it's a lot of the same ingredients, and caramelized onions are a huge component of the sauce as you can see in the video. Sometimes curries might have tomato or coconut milk, but as far as I know Ethiopian stew or sauces usually don't.
