This was for an Ethiopian dinner that I made for a friend.
Ingredients
- 2 C red onions, chopped
- 2C spiced butter (recipe to follow)
- 2 lbs beef, cubed
- 1/2 tsp garlic
- 1 tsp ginger, grated
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 2 -3 anaheim chili
- 2C water
- salt to taste
- Spiced Butter (Niter Kebbeh)
- 2 lb. unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 onion, coarsely chopped
- 3 tablespoons minced garlic
- 4 teaspoons finely chopped fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1 cinnamon stick (approximately 1" long)
- 1 whole clove
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
- 1. In a large saucepan, melt the butter slowly over medium heat; do not let it brown. Then bring butter to a boil. Stir in the onion, garlic, ginger, turmeric, cardamom, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg. Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered and undisturbed for 45 minutes. Milk solids on the bottom of the pan should be golden brown, and the butter on top will be transparent.

- 3. Transfer the kebbeh into a jar. Cover tightly, and store in the refrigerator.
