T'ibs
In Ethiopia, T'ibs is a dish made with lean beef or lamb stir-fried with plenty of onions. It's almost always accompanied by braised collard greens. We've adapted this recipe to include meat and vegetables in the same pot. It's also very tasty with bison, which closely resembles Ethiopian beef.
