Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the onions dry in a hot pot, stirring, until they release their water and begin to stick — this Ethiopian technique builds deep sweetness without oil.

2. 2

   Add the oil and Niter Kibbeh, frying until the mixture glosses and softens.

3. 3

   Season with berbere and a pinch of salt and fry the spices briefly.

4. 4

   Add the Green Beans and brown it in the spice paste, then add Garlic.

5. 5

   Pour in water to half-cover, simmer covered until tender, topping up if the pot runs dry.

6. 6

   Reduce until the sauce clings, check the seasoning, and serve with injera or rice.
