Ingredients

2 pounds self-rising flour
1/2 pound whole-wheat plain flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch salt
16 ounces soda water

Directions

Combine the dry ingredients and then add the water. Mix to a smooth, thin batter. Heat a large nonstick skillet. Ladle enough batter to cover the bottom of the skillet, tilting the skillet to cover the base evenly, and then set back on heat. When small holes appear on the surface remove the injera bread. Cook only on 1 side. Repeat with remaining batter.

not injera
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

as stated below, teff is readily available. I found it at whole foods, as well as my local market. No teff, no injera.

teff is readily available
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

Bob's Red Mill (bobsredmill.com) offers whole grain teff and teff flour. Further these are available from amazon... grocery. If there's no teff then it's not injera. the real thing is a sour dough process, no buttermilk.Read more

Missed the sour taste
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

Thank you, N from Corona, NY, for letting us know some workable alternatives if we can't find teff. It's not available in my... area...but I will try your substitutions. Matthew - if you can't find teff, you can't make injera??? I'm so glad Ethiopians who came to the US don't think like you and tried to find alternatives. Way to be solution oriented. Gees.Read more

teff?
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

You actually posted a recipe for Injera that did not include Teff. Wow. So, do you have any Vegan Fillet Mignon recipes? How... about a Virgin Martini or a Gluten-Free Baguette? Seriously. Tell the truth. Say, "In order to make 'X', you will need 'Y'. Yes, it may be hard to find; however, that is what the dish IS. If don't have access to that ingredient, well, you can't make this dish. Sorry. Better luck next time!" For those of you who don't know, Teff is the grain used to make Injera. There are recipes which cut it with other flours. However, to instruct anyone to make Injera without Teff is tantamount to saying, "Sushi is an age-old Japanese delicacy, made by rolling Country Fried Chicken in Mashed Potatoes, wrapping that up with a piece of White Bread and dipping it is some Brown Gravy." Incorrect. Inappropriate. Unnecessary. Unprofessional.Read more

raw
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

We didnt like the bread at all. The dough didnt look cooked and the insides also tasted like they werent fully cooked, almost... like eating raw bread with no flavor. I tried it a 2nd time and cooked both sides of the bread but came up with the same results. Sorry but I'll stick to regular baked or fried breadRead more
