Recipe of Doro Alicha Wot

Key Sir Alicha (Ethiopian Beets And Potatoes)

Today, of course, using turmeric rather than berbere would make the dish the milder doro alicha, not doro wot.

Recipe Summary Key Sir Alicha (Ethiopian Beets And Potatoes)

If you love Ethiopian food, this is a must-try. This is one of my favorite dishes. Serve hot over injera with the sauce to soak up.

Ingredients | Doro Alicha Wot

¼ cup canola oil

1 yellow onion, diced

½ teaspoon salt, divided, or as needed

1 ½ teaspoons minced fresh garlic

1 ½ teaspoons minced fresh ginger (Optional)

2 large beets, diced

1 cup water, or more as needed

4 large potatoes, diced

Directions

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat; add onion and a pinch of salt. Cook and stir onion until softened and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add beets and stir to combine. Pour water over beet mixture and sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt; bring to a boil.

Cover pot and reduce heat to medium-low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until beets are easily pierced with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Add potatoes and cook until potatoes are soft but not falling apart, about 15 minutes.

Adjust the salt and water content depending on how much sauce you'd like to have and is pleasing to your palate.
