Shiro Wot (Ethiopian Chickpea Stew) at Enat Restaurant - authentic Ethiopian food in London, Ontario

About Our Shiro Wot (Ethiopian Chickpea Stew)

Shiro Wot is Ethiopian comfort food at its finest. We start with finely milled chickpeas and slowly cook them with onions, garlic and a blend of Ethiopian spices until the stew turns thick, smooth and richly savoury. Depending on the day it may carry the warmth of berbere or the gentler notes of a milder spice blend.

This dish is a staple across Ethiopia because it is nourishing, affordable and endlessly satisfying. At Enat Restaurant we keep ours authentic and fully vegan, so it is a wonderful centrepiece for plant-based diners and a natural favourite on any combo plate served with injera.

Why Our Shiro Wot Stands Out

What Customers Say About Our Shiro Wot (Ethiopian Chickpea Stew)

HappyCow Reviewer

Gluten-conscious Diner

"They had clear vegan options and were helpful about ingredients. The shiro was smooth, rich and full of flavour, and the injera made it a fun, communal way to eat."
