Beef Tibs
The basis of Ethiopian food is injera, a spongy sour- dough flatbread made of teff, served with a variety of toppings. It is mostly made at home in a pan, though in Ethiopia it is also sold ready-made in supermarkets. In the absence of injera, serve the delicious beef tibs with rice, bread, vegetables, or any side of your choice.
- 200 g beef fillet (diced)
- 50 g tomatoes
- 50 g onions
- 15 g chili peppers
- salt and black pepper
- awaze sauce
- rosemary
- oil or 30 g butter [Ethiopians would use niter kibbeh clarified spiced butter]
