Misir Wot (Spicy Red Lentil Stew) at Enat Restaurant - authentic Ethiopian food in London, Ontario

About Our Misir Wot (Spicy Red Lentil Stew)

Misir Wot is a cornerstone of Ethiopian home cooking, built around split red lentils that break down during slow simmering into a thick, comforting stew. At Enat Restaurant we cook ours with a generous amount of berbere, the vibrant Ethiopian chili and spice blend, along with caramelised onions and a herbed clarified seasoning for deep, layered flavour.

The result is a stew that is hearty, protein-rich and satisfyingly spicy without being overwhelming. It is completely plant-based, making it a favourite for vegan and vegetarian guests looking for authentic Ethiopian flavour, and it pairs beautifully with injera or as part of a shared platter.

Seasoned with authentic berbere for a warm, spicy kick

"Best Ethiopian food I've had in years. The stews were rich and aromatic, and the injera was fresh and perfectly tangy. The lentil wot in particular was outstanding."
