  1. Ethiopian here, born in raised in Addis Ababa till i turned 19 (2014) and moved to the States and currently residing in the DC, Maryland VA metropolitan area since (The 3 most Ethiopian concentrated states and called the DMV as a whole)…i have seen so many ways of misir being cooked but this one takes the cake only because of how the key vegetables in the beginning are puréed instead of chopped (hate onions, tomato in big chunks/visible in food) and i cool exactly the same as hers. There are only two things i will adjust on hers (well 3 but no biggie)….
    1 is to add more berbere as i prefer my misir a bit more spicier and darker than hers.
    2 is to add Ghee (Kibe in amharic) which is a liquid Gold that boosts the flavor of every Ethiopian Dish.
    3 is to Serve it with an injera that is a day or two old nothing more. Fresh misir goes soo well with very fresh & soft injera (ethiopian flat bread thats used as base)

    Last but not least, add cubes of beef before adding misir and let it cook for 5-7 mins before adding the misir. Then do exact same procedure/when misir is ready beef is also ready.

    *or for faster serving with beef, stir fry cubes of beef on pan with oil and slices of jalapeños. Do this when misir is 10 mins away from being ready as it takes that much to stir fry your beef to preference.

    Enjoy

  2. THIS RECIPE IS EVERYTHING!!!!! I dont honestly feel worthy. THANK YOU TIMES A MILLION! I'm African American but I grew up around Ethiopians in DC. Ive moved away but always missed the food my friends used to make. This really comforted my soul and was nostalgic yet current for me. Best recipe ever. THANK YOU!
