📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Among Ethiopian cuisine's many slow-simmered dishes, tibs is relatively quick to make. Stir-frying over high heat brings out the meat's savoriness while keeping the vegetables crisp. At restaurants it's sometimes brought to the table still sizzling in the cast-iron pan, making for a dish with a real sense of occasion.

🌆 Where it's eaten: Carried to the table still in the sizzling pan, steam and a savory aroma rising to whet the appetite. Scooped up with injera.

🥕 Ingredients (serves 2)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Slice the beef thin into bite-sized pieces. Cut the onion and bell pepper into wedges, and roughly chop the tomato.

  2. Heat butter in a pan and quickly sear the beef over high heat, then set aside.

  3. In the same pan, sauté the onion and garlic; once softened, add the bell pepper and tomato.

  4. Return the beef to the pan, add the berbere, and stir-fry everything together over high heat.

  5. Season with salt to finish.
