Ingredients

Servings:5
  • 1 1/2 lbs Beef sirloin or tenderloin, cubed
  • 4 tablespoons Niter Kibbeh (Ethiopian spiced clarified butter)
  • 2 medium Red onion, finely sliced
  • 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 sprigs Fresh rosemary sprigs
  • 1 medium Green bell pepper, sliced into strips
  • 2 peppers Jalapeño peppers, deseeded and sliced (for mild flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1/4 cup Water or beef stock(optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet or wok over medium-high heat until very hot.

  2. 2

    Add the cubed beef to the dry pan in a single layer and sear until the edges are browned and the liquid has mostly evaporated.

  3. 3

    Add the Niter Kibbeh to the pan, allowing it to melt and coat the beef thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Stir in the sliced onions and cook for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften and turn translucent.

  5. 5

    Add the minced garlic and the fresh rosemary sprigs, stirring constantly to prevent the garlic from burning.

  6. 6

    Toss in the green bell peppers and sliced jalapeños, cooking for another 2 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  7. 7

    Season with salt and black pepper; if the mixture is too dry, add a splash of water or stock to deglaze the pan.

  8. 8

    Remove the rosemary sprigs before serving hot with fresh Injera bread.
