MISIR WOT (SPICY RED LENTILS)



Misir Wot (Spicy Red Lentils) image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups red lentils
3 medium yellow onions, finely chopped
3 small tomatoes, cored and chopped
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons berbere (Ethiopian Spice Mix)
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Sea salt
Injera or your favorite whole grain, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the lentils in a large bowl and fill with cold water. Massage the lentils with your hands to remove any dirt or debris. Rinse the lentils a few times until the water runs clear. This may require several rinses. Soak the lentils in lukewarm water for approximately 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the onions and tomatoes to a large pot and cook over medium heat until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes. Add the olive oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Make sure the onions do not get too dark. Add the berbere and continue to cook until the berbere is fully combined with the onion and tomato mixture, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 cup water and cook the tomato, onion and berbere mixture until it reduces and begins to stick to the pan, about 10 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, scrape the bottom of the pot to bring up the stuck tomatoes and onions. Add another 1 cup water and allow the mixture to reduce again for another 10 minutes. Scrape the bottom of the pot. Add 1 cup water more, reduce again for 10 minutes then scrape the bottom of the pot (Adding and reducing 3 times will give your lentils a rich and layered flavor.) Be sure not to step away from the pot during this process. As Azla says, "Misir wot has jealous tendencies and wants your full, undivided attention from start to finish."
  • Strain the soaked lentils in a colander and allow them to drain for a few minutes. Meanwhile, add 8 cups water to the pot and bring to a rolling boil. Add the lentils, reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is thick and the lentils are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Finish with the ground nutmeg and sea salt to taste. Serve with injera or your favorite whole grain.

MISIR WOT (ETHIOPIAN SPICY LENTILS)



Misir Wot (Ethiopian Spicy Lentils) image

Misir wot is an Ethiopian styled stew spiced with niter kibbeh and berbere.

Provided by Lizet Bowen

Categories     Main Course

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup red lentils
4 cups water
1 red onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons spiced butter (niter kibbeh)
1-1/2 tablespoons berbere
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground black cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground green cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
salt to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, cook lentils with 4 cups of water. About 10 minutes or until soft. Don't drain.
  • Add the onions to a medium skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until water evaporates, about 10 minutes, taking care not to burn them. You may need to reduce the heat as the onions dry out. Add spiced butter and simmer on low for about 5 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, and spices. Simmer for 5 to 8 minutes, adding water if it starts sticking to the pan.
  • Add onion mixture to the lentils and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes. Add water if necessary. It should have the consistency of a stew. Add salt to taste.
