The most common food in Ethiopia is "injera", a large, pancake-shaped food made from Tef, a nutty-tasting grain that is unique to Ethiopia and comes in white, brown and red. The Tef dough is fermented for up to three days before it is cooked and the result is a foam-rubber texture. Injera is usually served with a bowl of "wat" stew. An Ethiopian would take a piece of injera in his hand and use it to scoop the stew into his mouth.
The official national dish of Ethiopia is "doro wat" which is made of chicken. Fried meat (siga tibs) is also very popular in Ethiopia. Other dishes are crumbed fish, roast meat, and a spicy stew called gulash.
