BEEF STEW IN BERBERE SAUCE
Exotic Ethiopian flavors! From Sunset Magazine March 2006. For a less spicy version, reduce the amount of cayenne from one tablespoon to one or two teaspoons. If you have any Ethiopian Tej honey wine on hand, use it in place of the dry red wine in this recipe. (Honey mead would work, too.) This makes the house smells heavenly!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Pulse the onion in a mini-chopper or blender until almost pureed.
- Melt butter in a heat proof Dutch oven and brown the stew meat, for about 10 minutes. Add the onion the last few minutes.
- Add the fresh ginger, paprika, cayenne, cumin, fenugreek, turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, and allspice. Stir mixture until fragrant, approximately 1 more minute.
- Add the tomatoes and wine. Cover, bring to a "medium" simmer and place in oven for approximately 2 hours. If stew looks like it may be drying out, add a little bit of water or broth, about 1/2 cup at a time. Stew is done when meat can be easily pierced with a fork.
- Just before serving, season with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- Heat a medium, heavy bottom pot on the stove on low heat
- Put the chopped beef on a plate and season it with 1 tsp of salt. Place the beef in the fridge while you work on the next steps.
- Use a food processor to mince the chopped onions
- Pour the onions into the pot. Cover the pot and cook the onions until they turn into a puree (about 20 minutes). Use a cooking spoon to stir the onions occasionally to prevent burning. Add bits of hot water to the onions if they start to stick to the bottom of the pot and start to burn. You can also turn the heat down further to prevent burning.
- Add the oil to the onions. Cover the pot and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour the berbere spice into the pot. Mix well with the onions and cook for 10 minutes with the pot covered. Occasionally stir the mixture to prevent burning.
- Add the beef to the onion mixture. Mix well and cook covered for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add and mix the garlic, ginger and niter kibbeh to the stew. Cook with the pot covered for 40 minutes. Continue to stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Add salt (to taste) and ¾ cup of hot water to the stew. Cook covered for 20 minutes or until the stew is your desired thickness.
- Remove the stew from the stove once it's done cooking. Let it cool down for a bit so that it's not piping hot. Garnish the stew with fresh thyme (if desired ) and serve with injera or rice.

Steps:
- Generously season beef with salt and pepper. Dust with flour and shake off excess. Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high, and swirl in 2 tablespoons oil.
- Add half of beef in a single layer and cook, turning a few times, until browned in places, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate, leaving fat in pot. Brown remaining beef; transfer to plate.
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Swirl remaining 1 tablespoon oil into pot, still over medium-high heat. Cook onion and bell pepper until onions are golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and berbere seasoning and cook, stirring frequently, until tomato paste is caramelized, 1 minute. Add Worcestershire sauce and wine; boil until mostly evaporated.
- Return beef and any accumulated juices to pot along with broth. Bring to a boil. Cover pot, transfer to oven, and cook 1 1/2 hours. Remove pot from oven and stir carrots into stew. Cover and continue cooking in oven until beef is fork-tender and carrots are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour more. Stir in chickpeas; return to oven for 5 minutes more, just to heat through.
- Ladle stew into shallow bowls, sprinkle with mint, and serve. Cooled stew can be transferred to an airtight container and refrigerated up to 2 days, or frozen up to 3 months.
ETHIOPIAN BEEF STEW IN BERBERE SAUCE
For a complete Ethiopian feast, make this dish with (other recipes from my book): - Lentils of Doom - Cabbage of Ostracism - Tofu Dorowat (if you like tofu, or are accommodating a vegetarian... chicken otherwise) Making these four dishes together, you can: - Pick up one large white onion and chop it finely. Split it four ways between the dishes. - Pick up one 28-oz can of crushed tomatoes and split it between the Dorowat and Beef Stew Start the beef early, then the dorowat. Then, do the lentils (assuming pre-cooked potatoes) and cabbage. Pick up some Enjera (that amazing yummy bread). Live in Calgary? Pick it up fresh at Amy's Confectionery on 7th between 11AM and 5PM. YUM!
