Kitfo

Kitfo is one of Ethiopia’s best-known dishes: finely minced raw beef seasoned with mitmita (a hot chili spice blend) and warm niter kibbeh. It comes from the Gurage people of southern Ethiopia and is a favorite for celebrations.

It is traditionally served with gomen (collard greens) or ayibe, a mild fresh cheese that balances the spice. If you would rather have it cooked, try our kitfo dulet.
