Photographs

From the kitchen

  • This is what the second day of a holiday tastes like. Doro wat is made in quantity precisely so there is firfir the next morning

  • The injera always goes in off the heat. That is true of every firfir

  • Ayib on top is not a garnish — the cold cheese against the hot berbere is half the reason to make it

  • With no leftover wat you can build the sauce from scratch, but it will not be the same dish
