Ethiopian Injera Bread Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 3 Cups Warm Water 2 1/2 Cups Self-Rising Flour -- * See Note 3 Tbsp Club Soda
*note - Jeff says that Gold Medal works the best!!
Put the warm water into a blender or food processor. Add the flour to the water and blend, slowly at fir, and then with rapid speed. You should probably do this in two batches unless you have a powerful blender. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula with both the blender and processor. Place the batter in a 6 cup bowl and stir inthe club soda. Heat a 12 inch coated pan to 400 degrees (Jeff recommends an electric skillet but I don't have one!). Using a ladle, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto one cornrr of the hot pan. Immediately tilt the pan about to cover the bottom of the pan evenly with the batter. Cook, uncovered, until thetop ofthe bread is filled with holes and no longer wet. The edges should begin to curl just a bit. remove quickly with your fingers and place the bread on a kichen towel. let it cool for 3-4 minutes as you prepare the next bread in similar fashion, and continue until all batter is used. Place the cooled bread on a plate. Stack the cooled breads on top of each other and cover with plastic wrap until ready to serve. Can be made 3 hours prior to serving.
