Injera

[annettemint]

You can get teff at Whole Foods now. I'm going to try making injera with teff flour, barley, and wheat flour..and use a starter...It'll take me four days to get what i'm looking for but it'll be worth it...I hope.

[TheShecorena]

great Job!

[TheShecorena]

you could get teff anywhere in USA

did anybody try this yet ? if so how did i come out because i want to try it myself .

[dalenaeyasu1]

I'm Ethiopian and i just learned how to make injera

[Manarjb]

you are inspiration to begginers :) thanks sooo much!! im going to try it now :)! i hope it works out

[orlendatube]

i realy ike how you have all kinds of cool ethnic recipies i have never heard of! good job!

[dahabo09]

that look like somali injera

[maryeeey]

nice try but this is not the actual ingredient as u mentioned and note that we don't use salt. good job anyway

[kailetor]

To all the people who are telling us they are ethiopian, so what? Does all american say hey im american and im world grand chessmaster because Bobby Fischer also was one? Im not seeing any constructive critic but bla bla bla and no effort to make it better...So if you are ethiopian, go ahead and make the video so we all can see how it is made correctly...

[rizdraver]

I made this and it tastes nothing like and has nothing even remotely similar to the spongey texture to injera. This is not even fermented and thus has no sour flavor either. Avoid unless you want to make bland wheat pancakes for breakfast.

[orlendatube]

@rizdraver she fermentied it....did you miss that step?

[theyebeth33]

Almost everything she said is wrong and you don't add yeast and you mix everything and wait till the next day and by the way i know this cause i'm ethiopian and i learned from my mom in ethiopia

[orlendatube]

@theyebeth33 she already said its her best effort based on AMERICAN available foodstuff and ifestyles....i think its wonderfu to know thsi recipie as it is....since i can make it too!

[MyGreenBerry]

LooooooooooooooooL that's not Injera girl its Teff flower not this way though

[teft]

That's not injera but I am sure it is fun and delicious. You can get Teff flour from Bobs Redmill. There actually a fermenting process that takes a few days to get the sour dough taste. Fun stuff though.

[lakehora2009]

Here we go again ...Now copy our Injera...before we know it some one will have a patent... Our clothes and Jewlery are already in the run way...What else they did not steal ! Had this been us, Every news papers in the nation could blog about us ! Candians are bunch of iditos and racists !!!

[orlendatube]

@lakehora2009 huh? if you are so worried about what peope steal, patent things yourself! don bame other for taking initutive you are too lazy to take yourself....

[AfterThisShutUp]

Injerrra. You gotta roll the 'r'. "Injerrreh"

=]

[hunkiye123]

Nice try but you might wanna try to make your batter a lil more thinner and make the injera lol bit more biggger , the injer can be one big gorsha (bite) it self .

[pl0v3]

I am Ethiopian and I am not sure how people like Dreamteam925 and luxeden come to their kind of outlook on life. People all over the world are exploring, experimenting and adopting the best practices of the world cultures. I am not sure how some are offended by this. I myself do not know how to make injera and I can tell u i am learning from youtube.

oh well! enough with this....got to move on

[Dreamteam925]

im sorry but its pronounced

"IN-JEH-RAH-" NOT "IN-JEE-RAH"

please learn our culture before you try to emulate our food.

[nobic0213]

Give the woman a break. At least she is trying. How good are you at cooking food from other cultures, and how do you know for sure that you pronoounce everything properly. If you are ethiopian then you don't ned to learn how to cook ethiopian food from and american!

[luxeden]

You should be proud that she knows your food !

[Intelcookies]

@Dreamteam925 harsh, but tru...but still harsh

[lamrof]

This is basically dosa, if its not made from teff. Indian stores sell the dosa batter. Teff is sold in health stores for limited consumption.

[lamrof]

I take that back this is not dosa this is a pancake. In thickness you have pan cakes, then crepes, then injera and then dosa. Dosa is very thin. Except Injera the rest can be made from regular flour. Injera must be made of teff, has to be very sour and flimsy and spongy to the touch and should sog very well with the sauces.

[cshellca]

Your batter is too thick, for more authentic injera, after you add the salt, add more water to make your batter thinner..sort of to a slighly thin mushroom soup consistency. Then let it sit for 20 mins before cooking.

Pour the batter is a circular motion onto the pan starting from the outside and working inwards. You should avoid tilting and shaking the pan to distribute the batter - doing this will reduce the number of eyes in the injera.

[lamrof]

Crepe making pans, with a circling arm attached to them would do but the ones I saw are too small. Injera should at least be the size of the plate you are serving the food with. You put the injera and scoop the wot and other dishes on top. That is how you should do it.

[DANMERCY]

Good for you!

[mullened]

Nice exercise with Ethiopian Injera. It is my favariorite food with chicken soup.

[hulda2002]

this is also available here in Iceland, although made differently and not stacked with papertowels between them

[MomOfTwoInTexas]

Sounds yummy. I couldn't tell how high your flame was on the stove. It "looks" like a medium flame, but I wanted to make sure. Thanks for another great tut to try!
