How to make Vegan RED LENTIL STEW | Tsion Cafe | Harlem NYC | The Daily Meal

[@yezmirsheppard-halika6892]

THIS RECIPE IS EVERYTHING!!!!! I dont honestly feel worthy. THANK YOU TIMES A MILLION! I'm African American but I grew up around Ethiopians in DC. Ive moved away but always missed the food my friends used to make. This really comforted my soul and was nostalgic yet current for me. Best recipe ever. THANK YOU!

[@Emmanuel4334]

Watching this making me hungry 😅

[@lsmckethan]

Same here.. DC

[@christinehoolihan7433]

The way she describes the recipe makes this so easy to follow.

[@a.shibeshi2276]

I just cooked my first Meser wot ever using your video. It turned out the best Meser I have ever eaten. I shared it with my family and they were really surprised!!

[@hot0527]

No way really? Did you make a huge pot also?

[@a.shibeshi2276]

@@hot0527 Yep. I ate it for a week :D

[@user-rg5db2hj6k]

does it store easily in the fridge or freezer?

[@biancabenjamin4999]

Where did you get the Berbere spice?

[@marioncapriotti1514]

I love this cooking technique of blending all the aromatics and then cooking in oil.

[@Jay_in_Japan]

I love the way she speaks, I could listen to her all day! 🥰

[@divinefeminine9380]

Ethiopian food is always a hit

[@ArtandAlgorithms]

I could watch her describe recipes forever. She’s so good at this!

[@marynt4259]

I followed a berbere recipe I found online then made the stew. It tastes gorgeous. It's warming and comforting.

[@rhondawoodhouse5508]

Heartfelt thank you! I love Ethiopian vegan foods! Spices are so perfect for my palate! Bless you galore, personally and professionally!♥️

Ethiopian here, born in raised in Addis Ababa till i turned 19 (2014) and moved to the States and currently residing in the DC, Maryland VA metropolitan area since (The 3 most Ethiopian concentrated states and called the DMV as a whole)…i have seen so many ways of misir being cooked but this one takes the cake only because of how the key vegetables in the beginning are puréed instead of chopped (hate onions, tomato in big chunks/visible in food) and i cool exactly the same as hers. There are only two things i will adjust on hers (well 3 but no biggie)…. 1 is to add more berbere as i prefer my misir a bit more spicier and darker than hers. 2 is to add Ghee (Kibe in amharic) which is a liquid Gold that boosts the flavor of every Ethiopian Dish. 3 is to Serve it with an injera that is a day or two old nothing more. Fresh misir goes soo well with very fresh & soft injera (ethiopian flat bread thats used as base) Last but not least, add cubes of beef before adding misir and let it cook for 5-7 mins before adding the misir. Then do exact same procedure/when misir is ready beef is also ready. *or for faster serving with beef, stir fry cubes of beef on pan with oil and slices of jalapeños. Do this when misir is 10 mins away from being ready as it takes that much to stir fry your beef to preference. Enjoy

[@lailatull208]

That sounds great. I think I'm going to try your suggestions. Do you make your own kibe?

[@candacevonthemua.71]

You grew up and moved to my city (DMV) at the same time I moved to Cali. I was born in DC, grew up in Maryland and VA b4 moving across state. I discovered ethiopean food here in Cali.. I had a client who was from a village in Ethiopia near the Selena River .. her daughters name was salena 💕 I worked with her as she was special needs. After every session mom would show her appreciation to me by preparing a meal.. duro wat, silsi, gomen.. lentils kitfo etc.. once I no longer had them as clients realized I needed that ethiopean food daily 😂 I began cooking my own and I’ve gotten really good at it! I just don’t have the injera making down. I buy the bread from an Ethiopean grocery store. Ghee and berbere too! I’m addicted❤ I loved swapping life styles with you 🥰🥰🥰🤙🏽

[@SasaSasa-wy9wu]

Beautiful presentation I love how you explain everything. I made a successful lentil stew thanks to you -blessings -

[@UniquelySustainable]

I love Ethiopian food! Some of the best vegan food around.

[@yohannesaklog6004]

Yes it's actually the best vegan food you can try lol so much flavor onions butter stew 🍜 man it's really good if eat it a restaurant

[@celestialvegantingz]

Just made this recipe last night for the first time and it was life-changing. So so so good!

[@NeilG2023]

It's interesting to note the similarities between Indian and Ethiopian cusine.

[@homesoulgrownhandmaidenoft5276]

Lovely presentation. Ms Beehjay you have a kind personality and passion in nourishing people. I will enjoy to see more of your recipes. Peace be blessed. 💐

[@DanielSRosehill]

Ethiopian cooking is my favourite food. Love Misir Wot any day of the week!

[@dib_anbesa]

Ethiopian food is the healthiest food in the world!

[@in4finity]

And the most delicious! In my opinion. :)

[@michaelwright5098]

I agree I call it healthy soul food.

[@prettybrown8231]

And thee most flavorful😌

[@havinesun720]

Healthy? Not really!

[@annmariebusu9924]

I tried for the first time recently and had a great experience 😊

[@randomdiy6884]

Omg this is so similar to North Indian food, we literally eat this almost daily but with a bit more water . We call it 'Dal 'and there is a good variety of pulses in India.

[@detonater1348]

Thats actually true, Dal is the curry version of Misir. We call that “Alicha Misir” or “kik Misir” its basically the same as yours but we add Ghee on it. Even the thickness is the same. Good to know Misir Kik from Ethiopia is Dal in india!! Google both and see the similarity yourself for those who want to be blown away.

[@detonater1348]

To add a bit more to this: In Ethiopia, there are three types/ flavors of serving Lentils aka Misir One is the same as in Video above called “Misir wot” or “Key Misir” Second is the curry version called “Kik Misir” or “Alicha Misir” Third is darker lentil called “Difin Misir” the last two are mild in taste while the first is spicy. There is also other bigger lentils in general called “kik wot” with lentils being 3-4 times bigger than regular lentil/misir size.

[@Red85Fox]

And we called that (at das).

[@dimuthusenanayake9946]

Ethiopian food taste amazing and healthy too. I'm obsessed

[@arianelove8513]

Thank you from Minneapolis!!! I love, love Ethiopian Food. It’s my favorite ♥️

[@TheonlyKirindaMarie]

So blessed to have learned how to make this recipe from a friend 😊❤

[@chitownholmes]

even though this is 2 year old it is a great tutorial. Your warming smile is as bright as the dish. Thanks for making it. I made it and it was great.

[@CeCeMusica]

My favourite lentil recipe. its sooooo good!

[@MeMe-Moi]

I just tried making this recipe, and it is amazing. Definitely makes enough to feed a crowd. This was very much worth the effort of sourcing all the spices for the Berber spice in the recipe. This recipe also got me to try making injera, too. Lots of fun and delicious meal, too!

[@lodz8666]

If you want to make the Eritrean version, use less oil, so the onions are sautéed and not fried. Skip the berbere and add any curry spice. It is super delicious!

[@leab.2916]

Turned out delicious !!! Amazing 😍😍😍

[@yezmirsheppard-halika6892]

Love this version the best! Thank you.

[@silverhiker4549]

I'm actually here because I buy her Spicy red split lentil dip and was looking for a recipe. Now that I know she has a restaurant, I gotta try it! Ethiopian food is the best and I'd happily die on this hill. Give me some of the Misir Wot and a grain, avocado and fruits and I'd be happy to eat nothing else for my life. No joke.

Beautiful! I'm working my way through making the dishes I've come to love from my favorite restaurant (shout-out to Cafe Desta, Tucson, AZ), and this was next on my list. It looks wonderful and I'll definitely report back with a review that reflects having actually made the dish. But, after checking a few videos, this is clearly the way to go!

[@MrAnailecarbajal]

How did it turn out?

[@quizeen]

@@MrAnailecarbajal I make it all of the time now, but I do leave out the oil. It's magnificent. I've found I especially like it with two chopped roma tomatoes added in place of the tomato paste. It makes an excellent dish to have on hand for lunch.

You can use ghee, it will taste great 👍

this dish is normally cooked with niter kibbeh which is a clarified butter like ghee but it’s cooked with spices to make it more fragrant, so ghee absolutely works
