The key to authentic, great-tasting Doro Wat is a flavorful Berbere and a very long cooking process. It can take several hours to make a good Doro Wat. You can cut back on the cooking time and your Doro Wat will still taste good, but it won’t taste like it’s supposed to. The magic is in the slow-cooked onions. And it takes time for the magic to happen.
It adds earthy texture, wonderful flavor, and a zesty hot flavor to stews, stir-fries & sauces.
