I wish there was an Ethiopian chef to guest judge. Just to respect the cuisine and the country.

[@segiabera6308]

Agree

But then no one would have moved on but maybe if it had been showcased correctly by an injera maker or even eater they may have had a better learning curve.

It's ok if it's small but these are huge

[@kabaray33]

This is brutal. I’ve ate injera many times , but this is my first time scanning you tube to see how it’s made. If I haven’t seen previous videos and saw this now, I wouldn’t even try to make it. They have lots of courage to make it.

[@ByeByeBelly]

It's not very hard if you just make them smaller, and you need a woven basket to flit it easily. My friend also told me never ever oil the pan or try to scrape the stuck bits off, just leave it and they will stop sticking after the 1st or 2nd

[@suddddfdf8798]

[@kalkidangebru9880]

Another comment I would probably give you is that instead of scraping it from the hot plate “ Mitad” use the ground “gomen zer” in the small cups as it is oily and will help you oil the pan.

[@_ch1k3n_71]

watching them fail 20 times in a row gave me major anxiety after seeing my mom make 20 in a row perfectly.

[@Andrew-bx9mr]

As a South African, I am embarrassed and don't know what injera is 😒. Also they could've had an Ethiopian guest judge to explain it better to the contestants.

[@YamiKisara]

Why didn't they pour it from the edge in right away? Seemed like the obvious solution to me. Guess nerves got the better of them all.

Injera is like a street culture, a city culture. My family is Oromo, we eat it a lot, but it is not traditional. But I don’t know, it might be traditional for other tribes.

[@nebiyoupaulos9800]

you're not supposed to roll it right away guys!!!! It has to rest.

[@Black-lioness]

It is to test try the consistency for the texture

[@alexavasquez1992]

I don't like the way the contestants talk about injera...it's not really an "acquired taste", unless you're a picky five year old. And they're told pretty clear instructions on how to do it, but they don't follow any of the advice and then complain it's too difficult. Also wish they'd stop comparing it to pancakes, it's a flat bread for goodness sake

[@frenchwaltz0]

Exactly the reason they pour it wrong is because they think it’ll spread like a pancake

[@Sorozatfuggoseg]

Jason has common sense, congrats to him.. 😄 I don't understand why people put it to the center where is the hotest by finishing full circle it burned 🤦

[@indigobeauty1]

It's one of those things, it looks easy until you try...like singing, everyone think they can sing but most can barely hold a note. 😅

[@JamaaLS]

pour staring from the outside to the inside, wait until you see the bubbles and then you put the lid on.

[@frenchwaltz0]

This video was hard to watch. Why would you roll it after it’s made? It’s going to stick to each other. Also it’s not an “ingenius” idea to use the mat that is the traditional way. How else are you supposed to get it in a circle if you’re pouring it in a random way? It won’t spread easily you’re supposed to be pouring form the edge to middle in a circular way.

[@tewodrostesfaye4153]

[@sweetbearfanfictions5575]

This cant be made in home with a small flat stove or you need that big one thing and that thing to pour or you can use spatula to pour too in home?? Cuz the technique look much more like dosa in my country

[@ethiopian4173]

In Ethiopia you can find every home this stove we call it ( mitad) 😊, my self I'm live in UK and i make injera every week with small stove it's possible 😊

[@theactor3070]

In Eritrea we call the hot pan a magogo and almost none of the finished products were correct. The batter is poured outside in and we wait until bubbles appear on the surface then cover. After a few moments we see if it has cooked through and we slide the meshrafet under and let cool on the stack. Each piece is soft. Nothing crunchy. It would not be rolled until it cools, if at all. Usually it is stored flat.

This is different from dosa. The fermentation process is long and the ingredient is also different. Also, dosa is thin and a bit crunchy whereas injera is soft and spongy.
