Ethiopia

Beef Tibs

Author Ambassador Johan Borgstam
Difficulty
Intro

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.

Ingredients \ 2 pax
  • 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]
Instructions

Prepare the awaze sauce by combining hot chili powder, salt, oil, and fenugreek, mix them with hot water. Fry the chopped beef in oil or butter, season with salt and pepper, then add the onions and tomatoes. Top with chopped chili peppers and rosemary sprigs (to taste).
