Injera- The Cooking Step

[jmgabriel99]

Hi, Miss Avery. Thank you so much for the information you give it to the viewers.i tried to get this recipe from the ethiopian's I know.It was all ways tomorrow that naver came. Nythe any of this people will give the correct recipe to anyone.Sorry to say that they are the people who cry for help from the world. I came to know that the injera is good for most people with diabetic & overweight. Let us help eachother in this uncertain world, that we are not going to live for ever.? God bless you.

[znjibil]

@jmgabriel99 lol @ "they are the people who cry for help from the world". I think you are being too general about Ethiopians. your issue seems to be with the people you know not all of Ethiopia so why use such derogatory remarks? If you are capable of saying this for not getting a recipe, then I say they are right...Sorry !

[annettemint]

@jmgabriel99 I know plenty of East Africans..Oromos who don't know how to make injera..and besides it's rare that people actually document their recipes anyway..and measurements? You can forget about it. After years of being with an East African, I finally had to watch his family make it...I'm an eyeball and I cook by taste so it doesn't bother me when people are not able to recall their exact recipes.

[MelatCucullu]

hey i didn't understand what you replied to me :( it's kind of wired

[MelatCucullu]

hey i didn't understand what you replied to me :( it's kind of wired

[YeAbesha]

I am an Ethiopian just learning to make injera at home. No one has told me about cleaning the metad with salt but thank you for sharing that information. It's the little things that make a difference. I hope you have more videos on the how to's.

[TheMchwest]

i would marry you..lol... ur the type of girl i need.

[TheShecorena]

how about the mix??

[w11work]

u made it even better with all the measurements and it is perfect.

[1ethiopialove]

U did great and I wish I eat that injera hey try to cook some wet (stiw) too u r tiru balemoya neshi I just mix  some amharic

[Medhin100]

I really enjoy watching you make injera and I would like to make it. Is there any website that I could buy the metad ?

[ethiostud]

I like how u do it.......it seems very professional....just like my mama:)

[SuperJimad]

I think you did your best! Ethiopian Enjera is the best!

[MelatCucullu]

wow girl your amazing am from ethiopia but i don't even make injera like you:) am so proud of you<3

[atkiltgg]

@aki, Excellent! We didn't do it. You did it. I admire you. Good job. You are also cute, forget about the comment of some idiots. Cheers, enjoy it with chicken stew.

[atkiltgg]

[TheTomecody]

[MrBicky19]

good job :)))..

[MrBicky19]

good job :)))

[arsemakayan]

good job

[lakehora2009]

Mravery,

Go ahead and label it DE INGERA, made in USA. When you can not get the orginal, You know how to steal it, and modify it. No matter what, you can not make it like us !

[bucksonyou]

@lakehora2009 ur an idiot for ur comment...you should feel flattered that she chooses to learn more about our culture...it isn't a matter of stealing at all...ya idiot.

[lakehora2009]

@bucksonyou,

Oh yes, you got that right until I find some one "wudaki" like you ! Why am i flattred ? Because she steals our patent ? When someone like you an ignorant is around, i do not think, these bunch of morons will respect Ethiopia ? Did you know they copied our ABESH KEMES & KUTA, and pretend that is theirs ? If not, wake up and smell a coffee. Just like our coffee, we are the orginal who owns the patent, and everything must go through an Ethiopian approval !

[HelloAddis1]

@lakehora2009 be quiet!

[begtera]

@lakehora2009 Very sad and disturbing comment! As an Ethiopian, I feel very proud that someone from another culture tries extra hard and teaches the rest of us on how to succeed in making the perfect injera. You need your head examined! Thank you to to Burakaeyae for posting these series of videos with wealth of information! We love you! As for lakehora2009, you are a bitter unhappy human-being and I hope you don't die that way.

[pkkda]

@bucksonyou Every culture has something to unique to offer in the way of their cuisine, their music, their arts & crafts, etc. We are all members of the same human race. Let's share what is the best of each culture so that we may all benefit. Why be stingy, especially if it doesn't cost you anything.

[NomadDad57]

You can get the pan at target but under the name of "Lefse Grill.". I have no idea if it comes with the lid.  Search online for a "Lefse Grill with lid." I believe it will work for this purpose.

[NomadDad57]

Well if that thing is made out of cast iron using salt is what I was taught to clean cast iron pans with. I thought it was because it was abrasive enough to clean with without damaging the cast iron. It was a food product so you didn't need to worry about residue and it would be something you already had. Not sure though.

[Egalixt88]

where can i buy this pan? i came from europe - germany...

[mewwchan]

The orignal/natural ingera does not have salt in it, so it taste kinda sour for those who never ate it before. ..So I guess that's why they use salt in the U.S. to add a little taste to it. I don't know why but i always prefer the non-salted natural inger; it brings the taste of Ethiopia back. :)))

[SailorBarsoom]

OK, I'm going to have to either use the biggest skillet I or the girlfriend have, because I don't have a mataub (I'm guessing at the spelling). In a pinch, I guess I could use my rice cooker to make really little ones (it makes wonderful pancakes).

The kneading step my bread machine can do. The starter... OK I'm going to have to break down and get some of that. I guess I could just use bakers' yeast, but I'm sure it isn't the same.

Thanks for posting. I just bought my teff flour today.

[CoNiLa2]

@SailorBarsoom you can use a pan

just dont use oil

[SailorBarsoom]

@CoNiLa2

No oil, Got it.

[poopdude444]

somali aanjero is way better than ethiopian "injera"

[Qu3enz]

[poopdude444]

Thank you for the tutorial. My injera came out perfect!

[Yohannesiscool]

Good job!!!

[Qu3enz]

white gurl noes wut she is doing, damn gurl u noe it better then me, shit. LOL.

[gmrios]

English please.

[Qu3enz]

the white girl knows what she is doing, she even knows it better then me, shit. LOL. Better?

[EmmaYoyo]

@Qu3enz I know. I am ashamed to admit it. Here I am an Ethiopian girl from Ethiopia watching and learning how to make Injera from an American. By the way, how long are we supposed to let the teff/self rising mix stand?

[hwiseman1]

It's 1:30 a.m. and I just have to get in there and make injera for tomorrow. If I don't eat wot tomorrow, I'm going to do something drastic lolol.

[fitihab]

good job! It is easier to spread it like that on the pan ...like it!

[awlew]

Good job! My wife has admired how you did it. I think you better plan to market it in chain of supermarkets like...." fresh-frozen-injera". Cheers!

[MiizAfricanQueen]

omg its sooo weird watching this wite lady do it anyway ma mama made me do this all tha time...sooo sick of african food

[NomadDad57]

@MiizAfricanQueen: My mother was a white lady and she taught me to cook. Not sure why it's so weird watching a white lady cook. The foodnetwork is full of white lady's that cook.

[allencrider]

@MiizAfricanQueen racist

[hawla109]

thats no how you do it you gottamake lttle cirlcles

not jus pour iton like a pancake batter

woww

[h4ngedm4n]

thanks for the video. i love injera and was curious to learn how it was made.

[GUMAONE]

Great! I love Ethiopian food and Injera.

Thanks.

[101feven101]

i was surprised seeing a white person making injera!

[samule2010]

hey u did really good!!! weldone

[ethioprincess106]

very good!!!

ur perfect!!

im from ethiopia and im very impressed!!

im actually eating injera right now!!

[suspendedb4]

somali injera is the best :;-)

[101feven101]

what?!? somalians eat injera?!?

[suspendedb4]

yeah somalis national dish is injera with meat liver and other tastefull sauces ..maybe u shud try ur somali local resturant..but all though our injera is a little bit different from the habesha one

[tadelesh12]

take your garbage from this page, we poison our continent/ Africa.

We are going 2poison this country our young peole r learning violenc action from us, we r all the same educate yourself.

There is no such Somalian, Eritrean, Ethiopian, Sudan...we r nigars, black, africans catch the hell racism, poverty...all of the world. Yet others enjoy the resources of our continent but we live in donation by our resources this is happen because of people like refuse to learn from their mistake.WakeUp

[suspendedb4]

oh shut up u freak.................,fuck ethiopia i fuckinng hate them moron....

[joiles01]

You are a well spoken individual.

[GUMAONE]

tadelesh12 : What are you talking about. Did you even watch the show? Get a life loser.

[pkkda]

@tadelesh12 You are right - your country is being raped by its colonizers even to this day. But you have to differentiate the people from their government. The people don't agree with a lot of what their government does, yet they have no power to stop it and therefore should not be held accountable. There is no black, brown, red, white - there is only one people.

[saudiarabia23]

wow, lol, u da bomb,

[ayamejoy]

I got my lefse cooker so I can make this after watching your videos! It's going to be awesome!

[haymha]

I'm soooooooo proud of you!!!!!

[dhkirk]

Thank you very much 4 taking the time to make these videos. I've started cooking Ethiopian food, which I love, both the process & the end result! Until now, I've purchased injera from an Ethiopian grocery, which I am lucky 2 have access 2. However, I decided I'd like to make my own. The Ethiopian cookbook I have didn't give the detail u provided about the consistency @each step, which is critical to success. So I couldn't possibly have attempted this without ur videos. Thanx again!

[imflyinn]

injera is sooo good

[yonasff]

excellent job I impress even you did better than the native, but we live in the busiest world, we work so hard in America and we don't have time to do all the steps you for example blending, nding...so if you have starter just mix flour add more let rise then bake...

[pacothepimp1]

cool

[99854963]

would u marry me.........please

[whety]

Nice job girl !!! u cook better than some of those lazy ass girls.

[solomonpilot767]

wow thanks 4 the great clip,a nd,Ethiopian food was on discovery channel once,they said it is the no#one healthy bread in the world thats true i belive it!

[16181663]

lol, i love utube

[Tadeleh]

Dang , u r awesome !

[zilvenda]

she did it right but some how it doesnt seem natural

[adelader]

WOW

i'm really happy to see a white woman cook injera,i hoop some of the habesha girls i know watch this and get the motivation to start cooking....

one question though...are you married to an ethiopian?

[mekey14]

instead of salt my mom uses baking powder its better but salt and other powders work also

[ethioballer38]

both my parents are ethiopian and wen my mom makes injera she pours the lete in a spiral instead of just pourin it. but it looks like your way is working also. good job

[EmmaYoyo]

@ethioballer38 You are right. That is how I am taught to do it too. If you pour it, the middle part may come out thicker than the outer part.

[Steadno]

Love it!

[angel5874]

wow you can make injera and your not even ethiopian your really good!

the reason you rub salt on the surfas is because it helps make the little holes form

[worqitu]

not really .. it helps the injera not stick to metad... it has nothing to do with the hole formation... :-) that is the self-rising job or the yeast

[worqitu]

Good job! gurl! good to be open-minded!

[jppa22586]

I'm thinking the salt is used to clean and season the pan much like you would use a cast iron pan. Maybe?

[tesfalidett]

The salt is supposed to help prevent the injera from sticking to the mitad. Since you are using non=stick mitad you could skip the salt.

It is also good to wipe the water/vapor from inside of the lid after every injera so that it won't build up and drip on your next injera and make it soggy.

[KECHENE]

you so good.

[sandarge]

I love your show. You are a very talented cook.

[Barrianuch]

thanks vary good job

[Onexpresso]

Is to bad about your containers, been there done that myself also. Where did you buy yours, I would like to buy more also. Don't recall where I got mine from?

[Onexpresso]

I think you did a fantastic job, and work very well in front of a camera. Very good detail and complete. Keep up the great videos, would love to see some more!

[AskariWaryaa]

Man I miss eating Injera.

[906helena]

she is tooo cute.

[youthsponsers]

not bad for a ..

good try.

good job.

[Zabatsion]

Well done sister, the only correction is that , salt is not used at the beginning even or at any time, secondly you do not pick the metal , you just pore it in round filling all the gap

[bigblacknigger231]

that's really up to the maker my grandmother turns the pan just like she did and the salt makes sense

[rhesusman]

Very good video. If you decide to retool it at all, have the camera focus a little more on your hands and certain points, like when you're doing the kneading. The other recipes for injera I find on the Internet don't have anything like this level of detail - which probably explains why they never work.

[EmmaYoyo]

@rhesusman Agreed!! I have had 3 recipes from the net and none worked. Some even tell you to just mix the teff and the sr and wala you have the best injera ever cooked. Please!!!!!!

[mike7743]

thanks for the video

[hotethiochic]

i hate injera .what kind of human r u .who likes that shit .r u ethiopian.

[macaboy54]

I suppose your diet is 'rich' in Mcdonalds and KFC.Some say there's no proof that those 'foods' cause any damage. There's the evidence right there in your nasty little rant. It's turned you into a bigoted moron ! Bet you don't own a passport.

[mike7743]

are you mentally challenged Ethio Chic? you're not an American stop trying to act like one. you probably grew up in a country side with no clothes or shoes, now you want to be an American all of the sudden just because you won a dv lottery. it's disgusting.

[Danmicky]

Then why the hell do you call you`r self

`ethiochic` cuz you don`t sound like one.

I mean it`s okey to hate injera but to question the humanity of ethiopians? come on

you`re 27 so act like one.

[chioke69]

WOW! she's is good - give us more!

[SenaitSM]

OMG! I am so impressed. [[ haha ]] I'm habesha and I can't even do the injera right. My mom would really tell me that a non-habesha can do that, why cant you?! lol

[salaamet]

this's weird so beautiful

[hasanova4277]

i am impressed so perfrct !!!!!!!! how did she learn it ?????

[abyssworld]

the only way to appreciate and envy your own culture is to see other people of differnt culture do yours perfectly.And yes your husband must be so proud thx

[bklova]

OMG WHITE SHOWING US HOW 2 DO IT?

[Ingridity]

No...she's showing us non-ethiopians how to do it, silly....

[erking55]

OOHH injera is so good, especially with sebhi and dorho.I wonder if you can make sebhi as well? I think im going to eat some injera right now..lol

[gebre027]

will you marry me!!! i love it

[noely22]

hello you might want to look at the way it's made in our house you can go on my page and check how to put it on the mitad just check the way my mom stirs it.....

[blk24ga]

i am not a fan of ethiopian food tryed it

[mitimartin]

Hello , who asked you if u like Ethiopian food ?

[Ingridity]

then why in the world are you watching this?

[fhvtv]

in eritrea and in ethiopia they don't make injera with a mehdad, the villagers do it over camp fires

[fhvtv]

u don't have to make injera, u can just buy it from a lebanese store for not that much money, and although it is not as fresh

[fhvtv]

i am eritrean myself

i agree with eritreantigaraly and DMAN16. Habi2 is a dumbass eritreans eat injera also! infact, eritreans probably make injera MORE than ethopians. i have injera atleast 2 times a week... and i think you mean gicha, not pita

[Nebster2007]

That injera looked so good... very impressive... btw.. *ehem* Are you married? woudln't mind a wifey like you :)

[eritreantigaraly]

habi ur dumb..eritreans eat injera everyday!

i gotta admitt thats a tight medad...mogogo

[josephgessese]

EthiopianBusinessOnlinedotcom is the online directory the Ethiopian community worldwide. Go and check it out.

[hundaol]

you go sis! it's good to see a sister like you doing this kind of unique food. you really are talented........

[AlmazB]

Well ok you don't have to be Habesha to make decent injera like you don't have to be Italian to make Pasta.

[hwiseman]

Okay, my bad about the pretty comment. I thought Avery was hiding as an Habesha man and giving compliments to non-Ethio women to diss them. Okay,my bad. Anybody helping orphans is a good guy.

[eritreantigaraly]

my mom makes bomb injera!

she needs some tips!

tzahda people suck at making injera!

eritrea don't eat injera they eaten pasta

[hwiseman]

As well as injera.

[habi2]

no no no! only pasta haha are you realy 69 or you just like the number ...lol

[hwiseman]

69? No where near it. You're saying Eritreans don't eat injera? Hmmm. I know differently.

[eritreantigaraly]

eritreans do eat injera dumbass...we eat pasta also...but injera is are usual meal..thats are main food...search eritrean food and see what you find.

[DMAN16]

Why do Eritreans deny sharing little cultural things with Ethiopians? You guys have a history with us dating back to bc. But thats not the point, she makes good injera.

[eritreantigaraly]

i know we do....but habi2's dumbass thiks other wise

[DMAN16]

Yeah I was talking to habi2. I guess he is just a dumbass. People like you, eritreantigararly know more than habi2.

[eritreantigaraly]

yo...thanks dman i agree ethiopians are like sisters to us...but they got to admit our culture is very similar

[jerrylx2000]

Pretty and Skilled :) What more could a Man ask for ?

Thanks,

You Are Pretty :)

[DomesticGod]

Hi, like your videos, would love to get some feedback on the clips i put up, send me a comment! It would really help me out

Cheers Dan

[ashshugar1967]

Great video! Thank you I've been trying to make Injera for a while now. What was the device you used? How do you spell that Matad? Mathad? and Lastly where did you get it from?

Thank you again!

[abayabyo]

Amazing thank you so much for your efforts. Your effort is very much appriciated.

[kidistinaaaaaaa]

Thank you so much girl God bless you and your family...I sure learnt a lot from your video...never tried it b4 but now am going to try and let you know the result:) hope i was a good student

[MrAvery]

I have an Ethiopian friend who lives near me and she taught me. When she first came to America, she couldn't make injera either. She could in Ethiopia, but in America it's so different. So some Ethipian women showed her. Without her I don't know if I ever would have figured it out!

Heather

[alador2212]

where did u learn this?

[maynib]

You are really amazing, and you have a great personality, keep it up God bless you a lot!!!

[MrAvery]

I'm terribly flattered. I mean, I had no idea that men would be attracted to the ability to make injera! Maybe I should apply for a job at a dating service so that I can teach the women a useful skill???? :) Still, I'm pretty attached to Avery. I think I'd really miss him. Plus, who would cook injera for him if I married someone else?! :)

Heather

[joeSexy]

wow..Impressed.

One more thing..can u only make Injera? what about gravy?

If u can make the garvy, u will make an excellent wife. Seriously, let me know if u want to get divorced and marry me.

[elt0123]

Very good

[AbbaTateq]

good job!

[MrAvery]

sorry, she is married to me

[pjdude]

Thanks for the video, I'll try it out. :-)

[mannytheman777]

Wow, you've got it down to a science marry me?
