TIBS, ETHIOPIAN STIR-FRIED BEEF OR VENISON
This dish is super easy to make, but you do need a few unusual ingredients and spices, and you need to have everything set to go before you start cooking because it comes together very fast. First, you must get yourself some Ethiopian berbere. It comes as either a spice mixture or a paste. You can buy it online or in places like Whole Foods or Cost Plus Market, or you can make it yourself. You'll also need clarified butter, although this tastes more authentic if you make your own Ethiopian spiced butter. Of the many spices listed in the ingredients, the most important is the fenugreek. It is this spice that makes the version of tibs we served at Horn of Africa different from most others.

Steps:
- Get the saute pan or wok very hot. Stir-fry the onions without the butter for a few minutes, until they char just a little on the outside. Add the spiced butter and the venison. Stir-fry hot and fast until the outside of the meat is brown but the inside of the meat is still very rare. You need to do this on as hot a burner as you have. Do it in two batches unless you have a very large wok or pan.
- The moment the meat has browned, add it all back into the pan along with the spices, garlic and chiles. Stir-fry another 30 seconds or so, then add the tomatoes and the wine. Toss to combine and let this cook for a minute or two. Serve at once with bread or injera.

TIBS -- ETHIOPIAN LAMB STEW
This recipe is from Marcus Samuelsson, the Ethiopian born, Swedish raised chef of Aquavit in Manhattan. He learned it from the chef at Meskerem, a wonderful Ethiopian restaurant in New York. It should be eaten with Injera, the Ethiopian flat bread which is soft and slightly sour and adds a wonderful touch to the dish. Pita bread or soft tortillas are the right texture, but the flavor isn't there. If there's an Ethiopian restaurant nearby, you may be able to buy some. If you can get Tef (the fermented grain that gives Injera its special taste), you can make your own. There's a recipe posted. Add one to two hours of refrigeration time to the cooking time. You'll have some of the clarified seasoned butter left over, but you'll find a use for it, I promise.

Tips:
- To make sure the lamb is tender, use a cut of meat that is meant for stewing, such as the shoulder or leg. You can also use a tougher cut of meat, but you will need to cook it for longer.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. The recipe calls for a blend of Ethiopian spices, but you can also use your own favorite spices. Some good options include cumin, coriander, ginger, and cardamom.
- Serve the tibs with injera, a traditional Ethiopian flatbread. Injera is a spongy, slightly sour bread that is used to scoop up the stew. Rice is another option, but it's not as traditional.

Tibs is an easy and delicious Ethiopian stew that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is made with lamb, onions, garlic, ginger, and a blend of Ethiopian spices. The stew is cooked in a tomato-based sauce and served with injera or rice. Tibs is a great way to experience Ethiopian cuisine.
