Have you tried Ethiopian? There's nothing shy or subtle about it .. starting with a ridiculous amount of onions for its base .. producing a bold, in your face flavor .. if there every was one. —VeggiesByCandlelight

Ingredients
-
8-10
purple onions, finely chopped
-
1-4 tablespoons
Berberi (more or less, depending on how spicy you like it)
-
1 pound
stew beef, cut into bite size pieces
-
1/2 cup
butter (or more to taste)
-
1-4 tablespoons
minced garlic
-
1 tablespoon
salt
Directions
-
Wash the cubed beef well, pat them dry with a towel, and set aside in the fridge (** Please don’t skip this step .. it's an important part of the process for tenderizing the beef)
-
Finely chop the onions in a blender or food processor, until almost pureed.
-
Add the meat to the sauce & turn the heat down to low. Simmer for 45 minutes to an hour, adding a little water, if needed, to prevent the onions and meat from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
-
After an hour or so of simmering, add the butter, salt, and more water if the sauce is getting dry. Simmer another hour.
-
Just before serving, stir the freshly minced garlic into the sauce.
-
Serve with Injera
