DORO WAT (ETHIOPIAN-STYLE SPICY CHICKEN)
Doro wat is a popular chicken dish in Ethiopia, and for Ethiopian Jews like Meskerem Gebreyohannes, it is also a fine centerpiece for a holiday like Hanukkah. Mrs. Gebreyohannes makes her doro wat with a Berbere spice mix imported from Ethiopia, but for this recipe, it is not needed, as the spices are listed individually. Doro wat is easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time. You can lower the heat by ratcheting up the sweet paprika, rather than the cayenne.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees and rub the chicken with the lemon juice and vinegar.
- Put the chicken in a rimmed baking sheet and bake, discarding the juices after 20 minutes, then draining again after 10 more minutes. Remove meat from oven and set aside.
- As the chicken cooks, put the onions, ginger and garlic in a food processor with a steel blade and finely chop until almost ground, leaving a bit of texture.
- Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion mixture and simmer, stirring frequently, about 20 minutes or until the onions have turned golden. Then stir in 1 tablespoon of the chile powder, the sweet paprika, ginger, coriander, cardamom, thyme, fenugreek, salt and pepper.
- Cook for a few minutes, taste the sauce, and if you prefer more bite, add more chile. Add the chicken and simmer, covered, for about 15 more minutes, adding as much as a cup of water to reach the consistency of a thick sauce. Add more salt and pepper, if desired.
- Serve with injera, pita, naan or rice and, if you wish, hard-boiled eggs.

Steps:
- 1) Cook the onions over medium heat for a few minutes in a dry (no oil) pot or Dutch Oven, large enough to eventually hold all of the ingredients. Stir constantly to prevent them from browning or burning; reduce heat or remove the pot from the heat if necessary.
- 2) Add the butter to the onions, along with the garlic, ginger, fenugreek, cardamom, nutmeg, cayenne pepper and paprika,and tomato. Stir and simmer for a few minutes. The onions should be soft, tender, and translucent, but not browned.
- 3) Add the stock and dry red wine. Bring the mixture to a low boil while stirring gently. Cook for a few minutes, then reduce heat. Take a few tablespoons of broth out of the pot and mix it in a small bowl with the cornstarch until lumps are gone. Stir into the pot.
- 4) Add the tofu pieces, making sure to cover them with the sauce. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
- 5) After the tofu has gotten warmed, add salt and pepper to taste. Then gently add the hard-boiled eggs and ladle sauce over them.
- 6) Serve hot. The only traditional way to serve doro wat is with a spongy flat bread called injera, which can only be properly made with difficult-to-obtain teff flour. Doro wat is also very good with Couscous, Rice, or Middle-Eastern or Indian style flat bread.

TOFU DOROWAT
A variation on Ethiopian Dorowat made with tofu instead of chicken. For a complete Ethiopian feast, make this dish with (other recipes from my book): - Lentils of Doom - Cabbage of Ostracism - Beef Stew in Berbere Sauce Making these four dishes together, you can: - Pick up one lg white onion and chop it finely. Split it four ways between the dishes. - Pick up one 28-oz can of crushed tomatoes and split it between the Dorowat and Beef Stew Start the beef early, then the dorowat. Then, do the lentils (assuming pre-cooked potatoes) and cabbage. Pick up some Enjera (that amazing yummy bread). Live in Calgary? Pick it up fresh at Amy's Confectionary on 7th between 11AM and 5PM. YUMM!!!
