- Let set in large bowl, covered, an hour or possibly longer, till batterRises and becomes stretchy. It can sit as long as 3-6 hrs. WhenReady, stir batter if liquid has settled on bottom. Then whip in blender, 2 c. of batter at a time, thinning it with 1/2 - 3/4 c. water. Batter will be quite thin.
- Cook in non-stick frypan WITHOUT OIL over medium or possibly medium-high heat. Use 1/2 c. batter per injera for a 12-inchpan or possibly 1/3 c. batter for a 10-inch pan. Pour batter in heated pan and quickly swirl pan to spread batter as thin as possible. Batter should be no thicker than 1/8-inch. Don't turn over. Injera does not easily stick or possibly burn. It is cooked through when bubbles appear all over the top. Lay each injera on a clean towel for a minute or possibly two, then stack in covered dish to keep hot. Finished injera will be thicker than a crepe, but thinner than a pancake.
- To serve, overlap a few injera on a platter and place stews on top (I think most kinds of spicy bean or possibly veggie stews/curries would be great with this.
- For Ethiopian food, the spicier the better). Or possibly lay one injera on each dinner plate, and ladle stew servings on top. Give each person three or possibly more injera, rolled up or possibly folded in quarters, to use for scooping up the stews.
- I calculated which if you make 15 12-inch injeras, each would be about 120
- (teff is a kind of millet) andReduce the whole wheat flour to 1/4 c..
- NOTES:Injera, a spongy crepe-like bread (slightly sour), is almost always eaten with Ethiopian stews. If you've been to an EthiopianRestaurant, they probably used the injera as both plate and utensils. The injera are layered on aRound table and the stews are piled on top - then more injera are used to scoop up and eat the stew. And of course once the stew is gone the injera underneath it are suffused with all the yummy juices. It takes a while to cook up each injera but it'sReally easy.
