We're hoping that eventually we'll be able to have this site as a quality recipe archive for all the tasty treats on the Goons with Spoons forum in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Something_Awful_Forums Something Awful Forums]. This site can only be as good as its contributors though, so register and dig in.

This is doro wat. It is a spicy curry-like Ethiopian stew. It is delicious, it is rich, it is spicy. It also hit all the areas I was craving lately. It is also really easy to make.

Before one can make doro wat, the essential spice mixture is required. Indians have garam masala, and the Ethiopian equivalent (berbere) is fairly similar.
