Comment préparer

1
Heat a wide, heavy-based pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook dry for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring often, until softened, lightly golden, and no longer watery.
2
Add 40 g of the niter kibbeh and cook the onion for 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until deeply golden and jammy. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for 2 minutes, until fragrant.
3
Stir in the berbere and tomato paste with the remaining 20 g niter kibbeh. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the paste darkens slightly and smells toasted rather than raw.
4
Add the chicken and salt, turning each piece through the spice paste until coated. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the chicken loses its raw exterior color.
5
Pour in the stock and bring it to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover partially, and simmer for 40 to 45 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the chicken is tender and reaches 74°C/165°F at the center.

6
Nestle the peeled hard-boiled eggs into the sauce and simmer uncovered for 8 minutes, turning them once, until they are hot and stained orange-red by the stew.
7
Stir in the lemon juice and taste for salt and heat. Rest the stew off the heat for 5 minutes, then serve hot with injera or another flatbread.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

Slowly softened onions create a sweet, savory foundation for berbere, while niter kibbeh adds aromatic richness. A long, gentle simmer lets the spice paste become rounded and coats the chicken and eggs in a velvety sauce.

Conservation et réchauffage

Comment la conserver

Refrigerate cooled doro wat in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Store the eggs with the stew so they remain coated in sauce.

Comment la réchauffer

Reheat gently in a covered saucepan over medium-low heat until the chicken and sauce reach 74°C/165°F throughout. Add a splash of water if the sauce has thickened.
