Shiro / Tegabino

Shiro is a smooth stew made from ground chickpeas (shiro powder) simmered with garlic, onion and berbere. It is one of the most loved everyday dishes in Ethiopia, and a staple on fasting days because it is plant-based.

Tegabino shiro is the thick version, traditionally brought to the table still bubbling in a small clay pot. We serve it with injera and a side of avocado salad.
