About Doro wat

Doro Wat is a flavorful Ethiopian chicken stew known for its rich, spicy blend of ingredients. Its base is a combination of berbere, a robust Ethiopian spice mix, and niter kibbeh, a seasoned clarified butter, which bring depth to the dish. Chicken and hard-boiled eggs are traditionally simmered in the sauce, creating a hearty and satisfying meal. High in protein from the chicken and eggs, Doro Wat is a nutritious choice, though its richness means it can also be calorie-dense. The use of spices offers potential anti-inflammatory benefits, while the dish’s pairing with injera, a sourdough flatbread made from teff flour, adds fiber and essential nutrients. However, due to the butter content, moderation is key for those monitoring fat intake. Doro Wat is not only a staple of Ethiopian cuisine but also a celebration of bold flavors and vibrant culinary traditions.
