About

Tibs is a popular Ethiopian dish characterized by its flavorful stir-fry of meat, typically beef or lamb, combined with onions and peppers. The dish is renowned for its vibrant colors and aromatic flavors, often enhanced by the use of berbere, a distinctive Ethiopian spice blend. Berbere adds a depth of flavor that includes notes of chili, garlic, ginger, and other spices, making tibs a staple in Ethiopian cuisine. Tibs can be served with injera, a traditional flatbread, or accompanied by rice or bread, making it versatile for various dining settings. The preparation of tibs is relatively quick and straightforward, allowing it to be a convenient meal option. The ingredients are stir-fried together, creating a harmonious balance of textures and flavors. While beef is commonly used, lamb can also be substituted, offering different nuances to the dish. Tibs is often served at social gatherings due to its communal nature, allowing everyone to share and enjoy the meal together. Its adaptability to different spice levels and ingredients makes it accessible to a wide range of palates.
