A beloved Ethiopian comfort food featuring red lentils simmered with rich, aromatic spices to create a creamy, flavorful dish. Perfect for vegetarians, the mild heat and earthy flavors make it a favorite for both seasoned and first-time diners.
Misir Wot is one of the most beloved dishes in Ethiopian cuisine, cherished for its comforting warmth and rich, earthy flavors. At Horeb Restaurant, we prepare this vegetarian favorite using traditional methods and our house-made berbere spice blend.
Red lentils are simmered slowly until they break down into a creamy, velvety texture. The dish is seasoned with berbere (Ethiopian spice blend), ginger, garlic, and onions, creating layers of complex flavor. The result is a satisfying, protein-rich dish that's both nutritious and delicious.
Served over fresh injera bread, Misir Wot is perfect as a main course or as part of our Beyaynetu (mixed vegetarian platter). It's a favorite among vegetarians and meat-eaters alike!
